| Primary Identifier | Expr13083 | Subcellular Localization | FBF-1 and FBF-2 were detected in the distal arm of the germline. FBF-1 levels were uniformly high throughout the mitotic zone; by contrast, FBF-2 levels were low in the first four to six rows and increased by 5-fold in subsequent rows. FBF-1 and FBF-2 also differed in their subcellular distributions: FBF-1 localized to numerous cytoplasmic and perinuclear foci, whereas FBF-2 localized primarily to perinuclear foci and was more diffusely distributed in the cytoplasm. Co-localization studies showed that FBF-1 localization do not coincide with P granules. By contrast, FBF-2 localizes primarily to perinuclear foci that overlap with P granules and on occasion overlap with FBF-1 foci. |
