Expression Pattern :

Pattern  The elpc-2 transcriptional reporter was broadly expressed in many tissues including head and body wall muscles, head neurons, pharynx, canal cell, coelomocytes, intestine, and tail. The expression pattern of elpc-2 overlaps with previously reported expression of elpc-1 in the pharynx, head neurons, and body wall muscles (Chen et al. 2009). Primary Identifier  Expr14809

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
Longitudinal bands of muscle cells surrounding animal body, with one band running in each quadrant of the body, regulated contraction and relaxation of these muscles cause locomotion. body wall musculature body muscle WBbt:0005813
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
neuron with its cell body situated in the head, excluding the pharynx. head neuron   WBbt:0006751
body wall muscle in the head, including first eight cells of each muscle quadrants which are innervated by nerve ring neurons. head muscle head body wall muscle WBbt:0006761
H-shaped cell associated with the excretory system, largest cell in C. elegans. excretory cell excretory canal cell WBbt:0005812
A free-floating spherical cell lying in the pseudocoelomic cavity of larvae and adult C. elegans which can endocytose many compounds, possibly for immune surveillance. There are six coelomocytes in adult hermaphrodites, and they display prominent cytoplasmic inclusions and vacuoles. coelomocyte   WBbt:0005751
