Subcellular Localization | Endogenous MBK-2 and EGG-3 colocalize on the cortex of growing oocytes. Two MBK-2 fusions (GFP:MBK-2 and MBK-2:HIS) colocalize with endogenous EGG-3 on the cortex in metaphase I embryos and in discrete cytoplasmic puncta during the second meiotic division. In 2-cell and later embryos, EGG-3 was rarely detected, whereas GFP:MBK-2 and endogenous MBK-2 persisted in the cytoplasm of all blastomeres and on P granules until at least the 20-cell stage. Comparison of total EGG-3 levels to cytoplasmic GFP:MBK-2 levels confirmed that degradation of EGG-3 correlates with increased GFP:MBK-2 in the cytoplasm. |
