WormMine

WS295

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Animals grown on control bacteria (OP50, control JM103) reach adulthood and display smooth periluminal localization of IFC-2a::YFP in the intestine indistinguishable from IFB-2a::CFP. Primary Identifier  Expr14279

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
