WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr1789

• Pattern: UNC-83 was not detected at the nuclear envelope of migrating pronuclei. UNC-83 was first detected at the nuclear envelopes of migrating embryonic hyp7 nuclei. Later, at the bean stage of embryonic development, UNC-83 was localized to the nuclear envelopes of hyp7 cells, P cells and intestinal cells. By the comma stage, UNC-83 was detected in these cells as well as in several additional cells in the pharynx. In late stages of wild-type embryos, and in larvae and adults, UNC-83 was detected on nuclei in a wide variety of cells, including several cells around the pharynx and in the uterus.
• Primary Identifier: Expr1789
• Remark: The immunostaining patterns described here were not present in putative null unc-83 mutants and thus are specific for the UNC-83 protein. UNC-83 co-localized with two other proteins of the nuclear envelope, UNC-84 and lamin. UNC-83 has a more punctate staining pattern than Lamin. It also appears that UNC-83 is more punctate that UNC-84. This may simply be due to the fact that UNC-84 was detected as a GFP fusion protein that is likely to be overexpressed. unc-83(ku18) mutants, which have nuclear migration defects in the P cells and the intestinal cells but not in hyp7 precursors, showed immunostaining for UNC-83 in the hyp7 nuclei but not in the P cell nuclei or intestinal nuclei.
• Subcellular Localization: Antibodies against UNC-83 stained the nuclear envelopes of migratory nuclei and several additional nuclei.

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
