FIGURE 7.
The two RPN-6.1 isoforms exhibit different spatial localization. Live imaging of hermaphrodites expressing endogenously GFP-tagged (A) RPN-9 and (B) RPN-6. Strains are WDC5 rpn-9[ana5 (gfp::rpn-9)] and WDC3 rpn-6.1a [ana3(gfp::rpn-6.1a)]. (C) Immunofluorescence image of rpn-6.1[ana12(rpn-6.1::ollas)] strain dissected gonad co-stained with anti-OLLAS (red), anti-pH3 (green, condensed chromatin) and DAPI for DNA (blue). Anti-pH3 was used solely to confirm presence of maturing oocytes. Bright nuclear and relatively dim cytoplasmic RPN-6.1b expression shown throughout germ line. Scale bar, 50 µm.
