WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr2821

• Pattern: As shown in embryos reacted with a polyclonal mouse antiserum against the N-terminal 325 amino acids of Ce-RCQ-5, RCQ-5 protein was present in nuclei throughout embryogenesis, which differed from the lower mRNA level at the late embryonic stage. RCQ-5 protein was also present in nuclei of all the germ cells, oocytes, and intestinal cells.
• Primary Identifier: Expr2821
• Subcellular Localization: Expressed in nuclei. Disappearance of nuclear immunostaining in an embryo upon RNAi targeted to Ce-rcq-5 supported specificity of the antibody.

a female haploid germ cell.	oocyte	ovum	WBbt:0006797
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
