UFD-2 forms foci late after IR treatment. (a) Representative images of worm germlines of indicated genotypes irradiated with 60 Gy IR and stained with α-UFD-2 antibody and DAPI 24 hrs later. Filled arrowhead indicated nucleus with UFD-2 foci. Scale bar, 5 µm and (b) corresponding quantification of UFD-2 foci in pachytene region of germlines. Data show means ± s.e.m. of 12 independent experiments. (c) Representative images of worm germlines of indicated genotypes irradiated with 60 Gy IR. Germlines were isolated and stained with GFP-booster and DAPI 24 hrs after IR. Filled arrowheads indicate nuclei with UFD-2 foci. Scale bar, 5 µm and (d) corresponding quantification of UFD-2 foci in pachytene region of germlines. Data show means ± s.e.m. of 3 independent experiments. For n-values see Supplementary Table 1.
