Remark Reporter Gene Primary Identifier Pattern Subcellular Localization
    Expr4661 CYE-1::GFP was expressed in the Z1.a/Z4.p cells before their division. Within 2 hrs after their division, the GFP signal decreased in the Z1.aa/Z4.pp but not in the Z1.ap/Z4.pa cells. Therefore, CYE-1 is expressed asymmetrically between the daughters of the Z1.a/Z4.p cells. Similar asymmetric expression was also detected using a cye-1 promoter::GFP fusion gene (cye-1p::gfp), which lacks the cye-1 coding sequence, indicating that the asymmetry is regulated at the transcriptional level.  
    Expr4662 cki-1 expression, detected by a cki-1 promoter::GFP fusion gene, was much higher in the Z1.aa/Z4.pp cells than in the Z1.ap/Z4.pa cells.  
Expression pattern at adult stage was not described.   Expr1410 Expression in Z1 and Z4, the somatic gonad precursors, starts a few hours after these are born. Up to the formation of the somatic gonad primordium in late L2, LIN-26 protein was detected in all cells of the somatic gonad, except in the distal tip cells or dtcs (Z1.aa and Z4.pp). Staining was strongest in Z1 and Z4 and became weaker after each cell division. However, after Z1.a and Z4.p divided, LIN-26 was initially not detected in any of their daughters, but resynthesis occurred in Z1.ap and Z4.pa. During the L3 stage, expression was only detected in the anchor cell (AC) until the Pn.pxx cells were generated. After the last division round in L4 larvae, all uterine nuclei and two spermathecal-uterine junction nuclei expressed LIN-26 at very low levels. nuclei
