WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr3513

• Pattern: ref-1(1.8kb)::ref-1::gfp expression first appeared in the left, Notch-activated E4 cells and persisted only in their daughters, the left E8 cells. Expression disappeared late in the E8 stage, but reappeared during the next cell cycle on the right side of the E16 primoridium.
• Primary Identifier: Expr3513
• Remark: A ref-1(2.0kb)::gfp transcriptional reporter showed the identical expression pattern as the ref-11.8kb::ref-1::gfp transgene Picture: Figure 2A, 2B, 2C.

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
