WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr8589

• Pattern: In first larval stage (L1) animals, GFP was expressed prominently in the URX and BAG sensory neurons, with weaker and inconsistent expression in the ASG and ADF sensory neurons, the pharynx, and a few intestinal cells. In older animals, GFP fluorescence was also observed in AQR and PQR sensory neurons.
• Primary Identifier: Expr8589
• Remark: Picture: Figure 2C.

Definition	Name	Synonym	Primary Identifier
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
