WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr13606

• Pattern: Larval and adult expression in the posterior intestine, body neurons, tail hypodermis, pseudocoelom and an unidentified structure around anus. Occasional spermathecae and excretory gland expression. Widespread expression in comma stage embryos. No intestinal, neuronal, hypodermal, excretory cell or pseudocoelom expression seen previously. No vulval expression seen in the current study. Larval and adult expression in the posterior intestine, body neurons, tail hypodermis, pseudocoelom and an unidentified structure around anus. Occasional spermathecae and excretory gland expression. Widespread expression in comma stage embryos.

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

A fluid-filled space enclosed on the outside by the basal laminae of the bodywall tissues, principally those of the bodywall muscles and the hypodermis. Within this space the digestive tract and reproductive tract lie separately, each enclosed by its own basal lamina. Intercellular signals, nutrients and waste products can travel between all tissues bordering this space.	pseudocoelom	body cavity	WBbt:0005745

	The stage that begins when a C.elegans individual is fully-developed and has reached maturity.		adult Ce	WBls:0000041
	A developmental life stage of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans that occurs from egg hatching until adulthood.		larva Ce	WBls:0000023
	The C. elegans life stage spanning 390-420min after first cleavage at 20 Centigrade. Cell number remains at ~560 cells, with some new cells generated and some cells go through programmed cell death. The shape of embryo looks like a comma. A stage between bean embryo and 1.5-fold embryo.		comma embryo Ce	WBls:0000017
