WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr2215

• Pattern: In wild type gonads, a distinct punctate LIP-1 staining was observed in the region of the distal arm that contains pachytene nuclei. In other regions of the gonad, no specific LIP-1 staining could be detected. The puntate LIP-1 staining was absent in the lip-1(null) mutants.
• Primary Identifier: Expr2215
• Subcellular Localization: LIP-1 was localized between the densely packed pachytene nuclei that are arranged circumferentailly near the surface of the tubular distal gonad arm. LIP-1 appeared to be concentrated in rod-like structures that measured ~2um in length and extended towards the cytoplasmic core. This specific membrane associated localization of LIP-1 was not observed in other parts of the gonad or in somatic cells.
