WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr8865

• Pattern: GFP::RSBP-1 was expressed throughout the C. elegans nervous system and in many muscles. Expression of GFP::RSBP-1 was observed in neuronal cell bodies in the head, in the bundle of neuronal processes that form the nerve ring and in the neurons and muscles of the pharynx; in neuronal cell bodies and the anal depressor muscle in the tail; in the cell bodies and processes of the ventral nerve cord and in body wall muscles, which are required for locomotion; in the hermaphrodite specific neuron (HSN) and the vulval and uterine muscles that are required for egg laying; as well as in lateral neurons, the dorsal nerve cord, commissural nerve processes and additional muscles and support cells in the head.
• Primary Identifier: Expr8865
• Remark: Picture: Fig 5.

a single, H-shaped cell which lies just above the anus and connects the roof of the anal canal to the dorsal bodywall; its contractions act to increase the size of the anal opening by lifting the roof of the rectum and hence facilitate expulsion of intestinal contents.	anal depressor muscle	dilator muscle	WBbt:0004292

the most extensive region of neuropil in the animal, consists of a large toroidal bundle of processes.	nerve ring	circumpharyngeal nerve ring	WBbt:0006749
a bundle of nerve processes that runs along the dorsal mid-line of the animal.	dorsal nerve cord	dorsal cord	WBbt:0006750
muscle lining of the uterine wall.	uterine muscle		WBbt:0005342
The left and right lateral ganglia lie beside the nerve ring in the head. They each contain about (30) neuron cell bodies and send their neuronal processes into the ring at its posterior margin either laterally or ventrally via the amphid commissures and ventral ganglion, but form no local neuropil separate from the nerve ring. The lateral ganglia are in close contact with the lateral hypodermal cords.	lateral ganglion	lateral ganglia	WBbt:0005105
