WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr7427

• Pattern: GFP expression was seen in many nerves, including nerves of the head, tail and ventral nerve cord, with high level of expression in the nerve ring. L4 and young adult show expression in cells either side of the vulva. There is also expression in the head muscles and weak expression in the anterior and posterior intestine.
• Primary Identifier: Expr7427

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
