WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr1426

• Pattern: CED-7 was widely expressed in embryos and was localized to the plasma membrane. In larvae and adults, CED-7 expression appeared restricted to specific cells. Specifically, CED-7 was detected in the amphid sheath cells, the pharyngeal-intestinal valve, and the phasmid sheath cells. CED-7 expression was also detected in both germline precursors and germline, except sperm in larvae and adults, respectively.
• Primary Identifier: Expr1426
• Subcellular Localization: CED-7 was localized to the plasma membrane

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
