Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  The distal enhancer DE3 activated transcription in the m3, m4, m5, and m7 pharyngeal muscles and also activated occasional expression in the pharyngeal-intestinal valve and body wall muscle cells. Primary Identifier  Expr11804

Definition Name Synonym Primary Identifier
A group of six equivalent cells forms a tightly constructed `valve` that links the posterior bulb of the pharynx to the anterior four cells of the intestine. These six cells comprise a small epithelial channel with a cuticular lining in continuity with the pharyngeal cuticle and link the lumen of the pharynx to the large lumen of the anterior intestine. pharyngeal-intestinal valve cardia WBbt:0005767
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
