Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Primary Identifier  Expr16292 Subcellular Localization  Using CRISPR-Cas9, we inserted a fluorescent tag at the endogenous locus encoding VAB-10B, PAR-1, SMA-1, EPS-8A, and H24G06.1, an uncharacterized protein. We found that, like PTRN-1, all five proteins localized to the apical membranes of the embryonic intestine.

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
