WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr2635

• Pattern: In addition to the components described above, adult males showed transgene neuronal expression in the developing and mature male tail. Independent lines of transgenic C. elegans expressing the reporter transgene showed fluorescence in embryo, larval and adult stages. Embryonic reporter gene activity was observed around the time of gastrulation and continued throughout development. Strong fluorescence was observed in the intestinal cells of larvae and adults, and this was particularly enhanced in the cells of the posterior gut. Larval and adult fluorescence was also observed in neuronal cell bodies around the nerve ring and in processes extending towards the tip of the nose, indicative of them being the amphid sensory neurons.
• Primary Identifier: Expr2635
• Subcellular Localization: Expressed in neuronal cell bodies and processes.

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
