WormMine: ExpressionPattern Expr13283

• Pattern: mRNA levels of both cyb-1 and cyb-3 were high in young-adult and adult N2 hermaphrodites as well as in feminized fem-1(hc17lf) adult hermaphrodites. By contrast, cyb-1 mRNA, but not cyb-3 mRNA, was highly expressed in the L4 stage N2 hermaphrodites, adult N2 males, and masculinized fem-3(q20gf) adult hermaphrodites, in all of which spermatogenesis proceed specifically and robustly. On the other hand, mRNA levels of both cyb-1 and cyb-3 were negligible in germline proliferation-defective glp-1(q224lf) adult hermaphrodites. These results indicate that cyb-1 is the major B-type cyclin robustly expressed during spermatogenesis.
