| Pattern | In support of a role of ARX-2 in Q cell corpse clearance, ARX-2::GFP was recruited onto Q cell corpses at 37 ± 9 min (mean ± SD; n = 20) after Q cell birth, and the ARX-2::GFP rings lasted for 19 ± 9 min (n = 20). The corpse was completely degraded 34 ± 18 min (n = 20) after the disappearance of ARX-2::GFP, which suggests that ARX-2 may function during the engulfment of Q cell corpses but may not be involved in the final degradation inside the phagosome. | Primary Identifier | Expr13399 |
