WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr15046

• Pattern: Co-expression of scyl-1 and slo-2 was observed in many ventral cord motor neurons. However, most other neurons expressing slo-2 (e.g. head and tail neurons) did not appear to express scyl-1. In addition, scyl-1 expression was detected in some cells that did not express slo-2, including the excretory cell, spermatheca, uterine ventral cells, and intestinal cells.

an accordion-like tube that contains sperm and is the site of oocyte fertilization.	spermatheca		WBbt:0005319
H-shaped cell associated with the excretory system, largest cell in C. elegans.	excretory cell	excretory canal cell	WBbt:0005812
any of 20 large epithelial cells which form a tube and are mostly situated as bilaterally symmetric pairs around the tubular lumen. Each of these cell pairs forms an intestinal ring ( II-IX int rings). The most anterior intestinal ring (int ring I), however, is made of four cells. Intestinal cells contain large nuclei with large nucleoli and numerous autofluorescent granules in their cytoplasm.	intestinal cell		WBbt:0005792
