WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr8346

• Pattern: Expression first appeared at approximately the 50 cell stage, later with respect to SWD-3::GFP (see Expr8345), and decreased in subsequent larval stages. In larvae the highest levels of expression were observed in intestinal cells, seam cells, hypodermal cells, VPCs, and DTCs. Expression in adult somatic cells was extremely weak.
• Primary Identifier: Expr8346
• Remark: Picture: Supplementary Fig. 5.

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
