Subcellular Localization | In immunostained embryos, SZY-20 is found in small foci in the cytoplasm and at centrosomes where it coincides with GFP-SAS-4, a marker of centrioles. In addition, SZY-20 localizes to nucleoli during interphase and to the surface of chromosomes during meiosis and mitosis. RNAi of szy-20 significantly reduces staining of all structures, confirming the specificity of the antibody. SZY-20 is first detected at centrosomes during meiosis where it often appears as two distinct dots adjacent to the male pronucleus. While SZY-20 localizes to the centrosome throughout the cell cycle, the extent of its association is regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner. The level of centrosome-associated SZY-20 peaks at prometaphase and metaphase, slowly declines, and reaches a minimal level during interphase. |
