WormBase ID  WBRNAi00110387 Phenotype Remark  "An anti-chondroitin sulfate antibody has been previously used to detect the presence of chondroitin (one of the secreted GAGs) on the cell surface of embryonic cells and gonad (Mizuguchi et al. 2003). Using this antibody, we observed the reported staining for wild-type embryos (Fig. 3P,Q) but did not detect the antigen on the acs-1(RNAi)C17ISO embryo cell surface (Fig. 3R,S). Biosynthesis of chondroitin was not disrupted in the acs-1(RNAi)C17ISO animals, as it was readily detectable in the gonads (Fig. 3T,U). These data suggested that the absence of the perivitelline space in acs-1(RNAi)C17ISO embryos may have been caused, at least in part, by defective exocytosis of GAGs."
