WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr7859

Definition	Name	Synonym	Primary Identifier
type of cells that make up muscle layers in the pharynx.	pharyngeal muscle cell		WBbt:0005451
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
a single, H-shaped cell which lies just above the anus and connects the roof of the anal canal to the dorsal bodywall; its contractions act to increase the size of the anal opening by lifting the roof of the rectum and hence facilitate expulsion of intestinal contents.	anal depressor muscle	dilator muscle	WBbt:0004292

Subcellular Localization	In body wall muscle, UNC-96 is located in M-lines, identified by use of antibodies to the M-line marker UNC-89. UNC-96 and UNC-89 are also similarly expressed in pharyngeal and anal depressor muscles. In such single sarcomere muscles, UNC-96 is found in the middle of the A-bands, a location similar to that found in body wall muscles.
