Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Expression is seen in many tissues, and may be ubiquitous. A high level of GFP expression is seen in the pharynx and in the intestine of all stages. There is also expression in the L4 and hermaphrodite spermathecae and vulva. Expression was seen in the pseudocoelom. Primary Identifier  Expr7588

an accordion-like tube that contains sperm and is the site of oocyte fertilization. spermatheca   WBbt:0005319
female genital. vulva   WBbt:0006748
A chain of very large cuboidal cells forming a wide central lumen in which food arrives from the posterior pharynx, is digested, and from which waste products proceed to the rectum. Intestinal rings form in groups of two and four cells surrounding the common lumen; thus the epithelium is only one cell deep at any point, with neighboring cells firmly secured to their neighbors by apical adherens junctions. These cells have very large nuclei and many large vacuoles, yolk granules, and other inclusions; the latter increase in number and electron density as the animal ages. intestine gut WBbt:0005772
the feeding organ, a neuro-muscular pump in the head of the animal, used to ingest food, bacteria suspended in liquid, filter them out, grind them up and transport posteriorly into the instestine. pharynx esophagus WBbt:0003681
A fluid-filled space enclosed on the outside by the basal laminae of the bodywall tissues, principally those of the bodywall muscles and the hypodermis. Within this space the digestive tract and reproductive tract lie separately, each enclosed by its own basal lamina. Intercellular signals, nutrients and waste products can travel between all tissues bordering this space. pseudocoelom body cavity WBbt:0005745
