Expression Pattern :

Primary Identifier  Expr2463 Subcellular Localization  PIE-1:GFP and GFP:MEX-5 were initially uniformly distributed throughout the cytoplasm and began to increase (PIE-1) or decrease (MEX-5) in the posterior cytoplasm soon after the appearance of a smooth zone near the paternal pronucleus. The fusion proteins also appeared to decrease (PIE-1) or increase (MEX-5) at the opposite end of the embryo. Maximal asymmetry was reached by pseudocleavage with PIE-1:GFP enriched in the posterior and GFP:MEX-5 enriched in the anterior. For both fusions, localization was not absolute, with some GFP fluorescence remaining in the opposite domain. GFP:MEX-6 behaved essentially like GFP:MEX-5. PIE-1:GFP, GFP:MEX-5 and GFP:MEX-6 all accumulated on granules in germline blastomeres.
