Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Adult Expression: intestine - posterior cells; Nervous System; head neurons; amphids; unidentified cells in tail ; Larval Expression: intestine - posterior cells; Nervous System; head neurons; amphids; unidentified cells in tail ; Primary Identifier  Expr5641
Remark  Also expressed in (comments from author) : ASH amphid neuron; Also expression in a non-DiI stained, non-ASE/AWC head neuron pair sending dendrite to tip of nose (Hobert Lab 2005). Strain: BC13449 Reporter Gene  [srx-47::gfp] transcriptional fusion. PCR products were amplified using primer A: 5' [TGTTCAATTAGCTTGACACGAAA] 3' and primer B 5' [TCAATCAACGCGTATATAACCTG] 3'.

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
Complement of nervous tissue (neurones, nerves, receptors and support cells) serving to detect, relay and coordinate information about an animal`s internal and external environments and to initiate and integrate its effector responses and activities. nervous system   WBbt:0005735
neuron with its cell body situated in the head, excluding the pharynx. head neuron   WBbt:0006751
