Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  A transcriptional GFP expression construct driven by trxr-1 promoter was expressed only in M2 neurons. The expression level of translational TRXR-1::gfp was especially high in intestine, vulva and pharynx. Primary Identifier  Expr10547

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
