Intermine data mining platform for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Expression is generally confined to the g1 and g2 pharyngeal gland cells, both within the nuclei of these cells, and more weakly throughout the cytoplasm and processes of these cells. Expression is seen predominantly in older larvae and adults, but is occasionally seen in young larvae. Weak expression in the larval and adult intestine is also occasionally seen. Primary Identifier  Expr2005
Subcellular Localization  Expressed in nuclei, more weakly throughout the cytoplasm and processes of pharyngeal gland cells.

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
