WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr3687

• Pattern: Hermaphrodites carrying DOP-4::gfp showed GFP expression in pharyngeal neurons I1 and I2, neurons ASG, AVL, CAN, and PQR, vulva, intestine, rectal glands, and rectal epithelial cells. There was also weak and variable expression in several neurons in the head region. Males also showed expression in neurons in ray 8

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
