| Pattern | The ABU-1GFP fusion protein was expressed from its endogenous abu-1 promoter. The expression level of this transgene was much lower than that of ges-1::abu-1gfp and was noted in the pharynx and not the intestine. | Primary Identifier | Expr2206 |
| Subcellular Localization | ABU-1 GFP expressed at these low levels was also associated with vesicular structures, suggesting that this pattern of expression is not an artifact of unphysiologically high expression levels of the fusion proteins. However, it remains possible that the apparent localization to intracellular vesicles is due to misfolding of the fusion proteins. |
