WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr9733

• Pattern: Low level GFP expression was observed throughout development, although strongest in the L1. GFP could be seen in a few neurons in the head and tail. Also there was some very faint nuclear localized GFP in the intestine and throughout the body wall, particularly in the adult, which may be hypodermis or muscle.
• Primary Identifier: Expr9733

Definition	Name	Synonym	Primary Identifier
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
