WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr3055

• Pattern: The CeENT1-GFP fusion protein was produced throughout the life cycle, from late embryo stage through the larval stages to the adult, but only in a limited number of cell types. The CeENT1-GFP fusion protein was particularly abundant in the pharyngeal musculature, notably in the terminal bulb and procorpus. The fusion protein was also strongly evident in all of the intestinal cells both of larvae and adults.
• Primary Identifier: Expr3055
• Subcellular Localization: Fluorescence was most marked at the cell surfaces, suggesting that the fusion protein was correctly inserted and targeted to the plasma membranes.

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
