Expression Pattern :

Primary Identifier  Expr3274 Subcellular Localization  In fertilized embryos, GFP-MBK-2 foci were first observed on the cortex at 4.3 +/- 0.7 min (n = 4) after the start of anaphase I chromosome segregation. The appearance of cortical foci of GFP-MBK-2 in unfertilized, spe-9 embryos was delayed until 12.3 +/- 2.1 min (n = 3) after the start of anaphase I chromosome separation. The timing of GFP-MBK-2 redistribution was also measured in fertilized and unfertilized embryos expressing only GFP-MBK-2 and using exit from the spermatheca as a reference point. In these experiments, cortical foci of GFP-MBK-2 appeared 13.7 +/- 1.9 min (n = 9) after spermatheca exit in fertilized embryos and 22.4 +/- 3.0 min (n = 8) after spermatheca exit in unfertilized embryos. These results indicate that the redistribution of GFP-MBK-2 was delayed by approximately 9 min in the absence of fertilization.
