Glucose supplementation induces P-body and stress granule proteins to assemble into germ line ribonucleoprotein (RNP) granules. A: 1-h exposure to 500 mM glucose induces the assembly of GFP::CAR-1, GFP::CGH-1, and GFP::PAB-1 granules in >75% of worm germ lines. The granules are not maintained after 20 h of glucose exposure. Values are means ± SE (n = 28–59). **P < 0.001, compared with control; *P < 0.05, compared with control. B: live images of GFP::CAR-1, GFP::CGH-1, and GFP::PAB-1 show the assembly of cortical granules in oocytes, and for PAB-1 the assembly of perinuclear granules in the distal germ cells. After 20 h of stress, the distribution of GFP in the germ line is similar to the control, unstressed worms. Scale bars = 7 µm.
