WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00003917 Gene Name  par-2
Sequence Name  ? F58B6.3 Brief Description  par-2 encodes a protein containing a C3HC4-type RING-finger, a specialized type of zinc-finger found in E3 ubiquitin ligase subunits; PAR-2 is required maternally for polarization of the C. elegans zygote along the anterior-posterior (A-P) axis and is asymmetrically localized to the posterior cortex of the one- and two-cell embryo via interdependent interactions with PAR-3, PAR-6, and PKC-3.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Enables microtubule binding activity; phosphatidylinositol phosphate binding activity; and protein kinase binding activity. Involved in asymmetric cell division; asymmetric protein localization involved in cell fate determination; and establishment of mitotic spindle orientation. Located in P granule; posterior cell cortex; and protein-containing complex. Expressed in germ line.

  Maternal class (M): genes that are called present in at least one of the three PC6 replicates. A modified Welch F statistic was used for ANOVA. For each gene, regressed error estimates were substituted for observed error estimates. The substitution is justified by the lack of consistency among the most and least variable genes at each time point. Regressed error estimates were abundance-dependent pooled error estimates that represented a median error estimate from a window of genes of similar abundance to the gene of interest. A randomization test was used to compute the probability Pg of the observed F statistic for gene g under the null hypothesis that developmental time had no effect on expression. P-values were not corrected for multiple testing. [cgc5767]:expression_class_M

Antibodies against the amino and carboxy termini gave the same results. early embryo(author) = blastula + gastrulating embryo(curator).   Expr579 PAR-1 is found in the cortex of germ line cells in the whole adult gonad. In early embryos, cortical PAR-2 expression continues in P0, P1, P2, P3 and P4 (the cells of germline lineage), fades in Z2 and Z3. In all but P4, PAR-1 exhibits an asymmetric distribution. In the distal gonad, PAR-2 staining is strongest at septa between nuclei. In the proximal gonad, PAR-2 is found uniformly in the periphery. PAR-2 is associated with the cortical cytoskeleton. PAR-2 becomes localized to the posterior cortex in P0 through P3. During the symmetrical division of P4, PAR-2 is uniformly distributed at the cortex so that both Z2 and Z3 initially show PAR-2.
    Expr2885 Decreased levels of expression in the glp-4(bn2) mutant compared to the mixed stage N2, embryo, and T6 samples (adults).  
Previous data: analysis of the PAR proteins has focused primarily on their anterior-posterior localization at the 1-cell stage and their roles in subsequent anterior-posterior polarity. After cell division begins, however, this anterior-posterior asymmetry is reiterated only in the lineage of cells that form the germline. In contrast, some somatic (non-germline) cells show an apical-basal polarity in PAR localization.   Expr1820 The apical-basal polarity of the PAR protein persists through early gastrulation, although the level of PAR-2 diminishes. Later changes in PAR distribution were not analyzed further. By the 4-cell stage, the posterior PAR protein PAR-2 is localized to basolateral surfaces, and is not detected on the apical surfaces of somatic cells.

    Expr10542   At the onset of cytokinesis, as the furrow has formed, cortical anterior PAR-6-mCherry fluorescence intensity decreases while it increases at the cleavage furrow. The anterior levels of PAR-6- mCherry then steadily decrease at beginning of furrow closure. In the posterior cortex of the single-cell embryo, PAR- 2-GFP fluorescence intensity decreases at furrow initiation to furrow closure, yet increases in intensity at the cleavage furrow. The posterior cortex fluorescence of PAR-2- GFP continues to decrease after furrow closure. After 4-min postclosure, posterior PAR-2-GFP fluorescence starts to increase until 16-min postclosure resulting in an 18% increase in cortical fluorescence intensity. The increase in the cortical posterior fluorescence correlates with the clearance of PAR-2-GFP at the cleavage furrow. In wild-type embryos, PAR-6-mCherry and PAR-2-GFP localize to the anterior and posterior poles prior to cleavage furrow initiation. As the furrow starts to ingress (2.7 min), both anterior and posterior PAR proteins appear along the furrow membrane, but only PAR-6-mCherry is found at the leading edge of the furrow membrane. As the furrow continues to ingress (4.7 min), this localization pattern is maintained. At 12.5 min after the initiation of furrow ingression, the flanking membrane along the furrow is predominately labeled with PAR-6- mCherry. The midbody region is the only place where PAR-2-GFP co-localizes with PAR-6-mCherry. As the embryo continues to divide to become a four-celled embryo, the localization of the anterior and posterior PAR proteins segregate to the membrane boundaries on opposite sides of the embryo. Here, PAR-6 is found predominantly along the membrane boundaries between the ABa, Abp, and EMS blastomeres. Anterior and posterior PAR protein localization at the furrow is observed until 8-min postcleavage furrow closure. Between 8- and 16-min postcleavage furrow closure, PAR-2-GFP localization becomes restricted to the membrane region in vicinity of the midbody (8-16-min postclosure). PAR-6-mCherry localizes along the entire furrow membrane during cytokinesis, whereas, PAR-2 is temporally and spatially restricted along the furrow.

    Expr2462 Before pronuclear formation, GFP:PAR-2 and GFP:PAR-6 were distributed uniformly throughout the embryo. Both GFP:PAR-2 and GFP:PAR-6 could be detected readily in the cytoplasm, and were also visibly enriched at the cortex. The first asymmetry was seen after the appearance of pronuclei when ruffling ceased abruptly near the paternal pronucleus. At that time, GFP:PAR-2 began to increase and GFP:PAR-6 began to decrease on the cortex in the smooth region. For the next 10 minutes, as the smooth region expanded towards the anterior, the GFP:PAR-2 domain expanded along with it, whereas GFP:PAR-6 receded, becoming more prominent in the area where ruffling is maintained. By pseudocleavage, the fusions reached their final configurations on the cortex, with GFP:PAR-2 enriched in the posterior and GFP:PAR-6 enriched in the anterior. GFP:PAR-2 was also detected on centrosomes during pronuclear rotation and GFP:PAR-6 was detected in both pronuclei just before pronuclear fusion. The latter localizations have not been reported previously for the endogenous proteins.
