WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr1188

• Pattern: Fluorescence was found in some parts of the neuromuscular system. The nervous system was labeled to a large extent. Labeling was strong in the nerve ring (nr), and included the dorsal and ventral nerve cord (dnc and vnc), and tail neurons (tn). The vulval muscles (vm) and the pharyngeal intestinal valve cells (piv) were also stained. The same structures were labeled, albeit weaker, when a CeCLC-2-GFP fusion protein was expressed from a slightly longer upstream region.
• Primary Identifier: Expr1188
• Remark: Reporter gene fusion type not specified. clh-2 (WS60) = ceclc-2 (cgc3797).

Definition	Name	Synonym	Primary Identifier
A group of six equivalent cells forms a tightly constructed `valve` that links the posterior bulb of the pharynx to the anterior four cells of the intestine. These six cells comprise a small epithelial channel with a cuticular lining in continuity with the pharyngeal cuticle and link the lumen of the pharynx to the large lumen of the anterior intestine.	pharyngeal-intestinal valve	cardia	WBbt:0005767
