WS294

Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  A high proportion of PKC2 polypeptides is associated with the particulate fraction in newly-hatched (early L1) C. elegans and L3 and L4 larvae. Primary Identifier  Expr1618
Subcellular Localization  In mid-L1 and L2 larvae, as well as young adult nematodes, PKC2 isoforms are nearly uniformly dispersed between cytosol and organelles and/or cytoskeleton. In contrast, 70% of PKC2 isoforms is isolated in cytosol from egg-laying adults.

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 large process bundle that runs along the vental mid-line extending from the ventral region of the nerve ring. ventral nerve cord ventral cord WBbt:0005829

any of 20 large epithelial cells which form a tube and are mostly situated as bilaterally symmetric pairs around the tubular lumen. Each of these cell pairs forms an intestinal ring ( II-IX int rings). The most anterior intestinal ring (int ring I), however, is made of four cells. Intestinal cells contain large nuclei with large nucleoli and numerous autofluorescent granules in their cytoplasm. intestinal cell   WBbt:0005792
