Expression Pattern :

Pattern  Three independent lines of transformed nematodes expressing the W03G9.4::GFP transgene showed fluorescence that was entirely restricted to the intestinal cells of larval and adult stages. A common pattern in adult hermaphrodites was strong expression of GFP in the most anterior gut cells (Int 1) accompanied by less pronounced expression in the mid-gut and posterior-gut cells. The other frequently observed pattern, especially in larval stages, was equally strong expression in both the Int 1 cells and cells of the posterior region of the gut. The fluorescence was detected in the intestine from the L2 stage through to the adult, but no GFP expression was observed in embryos. Primary Identifier  Expr1652
Subcellular Localization  The W03G9.4::GFP protein was localized in the cytoplasm and did not appear to be associated with organelles nor the plasma membrane.

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
