WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr3818

• Pattern: Expressed in adult. Expressed in hypodermal cells. No fluorescent signal could be discerned in embryos present in cln-3.2::GFP transgenic adults, in newly laid eggs from transgenic adults or in transgenic larvae. Adult cln-3.2::GFP transgenic hermaphrodite and male nematodes displayed fluorescence in the hypoderm visible as multiple thread-like patterns with regular interruptions and mild belt-like patterns running alongside of the body of the animal, both clearly distinguishable from autofluorescence. Punctate fluorescence in the pharynx and faint fluorescence in cells lining the cuticle of the head could be observed.
• Primary Identifier: Expr3818
• Remark: Reporter gene fusion type not specified.

the feeding organ, a neuro-muscular pump in the head of the animal, used to ingest food, bacteria suspended in liquid, filter them out, grind them up and transport posteriorly into the instestine.	pharynx	esophagus	WBbt:0003681
a rigid external coating which is secreted by the hypodermis, seam and some transitional epithelial cells which covers the outer body, the major openings into the body cavity from the exterior, and two large sensory bristles, the male spicules. The cuticle of the spicules, the hook, and of some portions of the spicule channels is especially rigid and is probably sclerotized. Similar sclerotic features are occasionally noted in the ventral surface of the male tail fan.	cuticle	exoskeleton	WBbt:0005755
