| Primary Identifier | Expr15969 | Subcellular Localization | SPE-18 protein localizes to FBs of developing spermatocytes. Within wild-type male gonads, SPE-18 labeling was first detectable in late pachytene spermatocytes and then increased in intensity through the karyosome stage Within developing spermatocytes, SPE-18 labeled numerous discrete structures the pattern and distribution of which seemed similar to FBs. SPE-18 labeling then decreased in intensity through the meiotic divisions and became undetectable in haploid spermatids. This failure to detect SPE18 in haploid sperm was consistent with the absence of a SPE-18 signal in western blots of adult spermatozoa-containing hermaphrodites. |
