Localization of MEC-4 and MEC-10 protein fusions in body touch neurons. Shown are images of MEC-4::GFP (A), MEC-10::GFP (B), and MEC-10(tm1552)::GFP (C) fusions expressed in ALM. MEC-4::GFP normally is distributed in punctae along the touch receptor process. MEC-10::GFP and MEC-10(tm1552)::GFP are found only in the cell body in about 70% of observations; in the rest some staining can be observed in the posterior-projecting dendrite. Similar results were seen using anti-GFP antibodies or antibodies against the MEC-4 and MEC-10 proteins (which stain only overexpressing strains due to the low abundance of the MEC-4/MEC-10 proteins).
