WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr9461

• Pattern: Expression is seen in all larval stages and adults, predominantly in intestinal cells. However, expression in other cells in the head and tail (presumably neurons), and expression in the pharynx and hypodermis is also seen, particularly in young larvae. This gene is the orthologue of human PIN4 (peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase (NIMA-interacting), 4 parvulin).
• Primary Identifier: Expr9461
• Remark: Operon: CEOP2606
• Subcellular Localization: Sub-cellular localization within the body wall muscle: Muscle cell membrane +/- Muscle arms

any of 20 large epithelial cells which form a tube and are mostly situated as bilaterally symmetric pairs around the tubular lumen. Each of these cell pairs forms an intestinal ring ( II-IX int rings). The most anterior intestinal ring (int ring I), however, is made of four cells. Intestinal cells contain large nuclei with large nucleoli and numerous autofluorescent granules in their cytoplasm.	intestinal cell		WBbt:0005792
