| Pattern | The transgene containing C06A5.8 3' UTR expressed GFP::H2B in oocytes and the meiotic region, but was either absent or very low in the mitotic germ cells. | Primary Identifier | Expr9711 |
| Reporter Gene | We employed a transgene-based assay that tests the post-transcriptional control activity of 3' UTRs in vivo. In this assay, the GFP::H2B reporter fusion is placed upstream of the selected 3' UTR such that the entire fusion-GFP::H2B-3' UTR-is produced as a single transcript. Expression in the germline is achieved by using pie-1 promoter, which has been shown earlier to drive transgene expression in the germline. |
