WS295

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Expression was seen from early/mid-embryo stage to late embryo in many cells of the embryo. Hatched nematodes showed expression of GFP in nerves of the head and tail and more faintly in the ventral nerve cord. Some expression was seen in the head muscle and in coelomocytes, with faint and intermittent GFP expression also seen in the intestine. Primary Identifier  Expr7511

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
a large process bundle that runs along the vental mid-line extending from the ventral region of the nerve ring. ventral nerve cord ventral cord WBbt:0005829
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
neuron with its cell body situated in the tail, posterior to rectum. tail neuron   WBbt:0006759
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
