An integrated data resource for C. elegans and related nematodes

Expression Pattern :

Pattern  The sulp-2 promoter was active in the intestine (strongly in both the anterior- and posterior-most cells), as well as in several neurons near the anterior pharynx, including the dorsal CEPD and ventral CEPV cephalic neurons. Primary Identifier  Expr3247

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
