| Primary Identifier | Expr2466 | Remark | In wsp-1(RNAi) embryos, WSP-1 protein levels were reduced and localization at boundaries was diminished. Reduction of the protein level of WSP-1 was observed in almost all the RNAi-treated embryos, including those that would undergo normal embryogenesis. Anti-actin staining of wsp-1(RNAi) embryos did not significantly alter the actin skeleton compared to wild-type embryos. |
| Subcellular Localization | During early embryogenesis, WSP-1 colocalized with actin at the blastomere boundary. During ventral enclosure, WSP-1 colocalized with actin at the periphery of cells, including in hypodermal cells migrating to the ventral side. |
