Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  AKT-2/GFP full-length protein fusion gene is expressed at the same times as AKT-1/GFP and in the same tissues that express AKT-1/GFP although AKT-2/GFP seems to be less abundant. Primary Identifier  Expr1409
Remark  See Expr1408 for akt-1 expression pattern.

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

Four processes (canals) of the excretory canal cell each contain a central collecting lumen which feeds to a central lumenal canal in the cell body; the central canal forms a specialized membrane to release fluids into the excretory duct. These five canals form a continuous H-shaped channel which extends almost the full length of the body, generally in contact with the lateral hypodermis and the pseudocoelom. excretory canal canal WBbt:0005775

  The C. elegans life stage spanning 620-800min(hatch) 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. A stage after elongation is over. The last stage of embryogenesis. Also called pre-hatched embryo, late embryo or morphogenetic embryo. fully-elongated embryo Ce WBls:0000021
  A developemental life stage of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans that occurs from egg hatching until death. postembryonic Ce WBls:0000022
