WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr1343

• Pattern: Within the adult germline, IMA-3 was detected in the common cytoplasm of the rachis and in association with the nuclei throughout the germline, regardless of hermaphrodite age. In male germlines, IMA-3 was detected at the nuclear envelope and in the rachis similar to hermaphrodite germlines. In developing spermatids, IMA-3 was no longer associated with the nucleus, but was distributed in brightly staining spots in the presumptive residual body. IMA-3 was detected by indirect immunofluorescence in the somatic tissues of larval and adult worms and was evident in somatic nuclei of the gonad.
