Using antibodies against MOG-3 authors found one major 53 kD protein in extracts from wild type and masculinized
fem-3(gf) animals, but not in
mog-3 mutants. MOG-3 was more abundant in wild type than in
fem-3(gf) animals indicating that the protein is expressed in embryos or oocytes, which are absent in the masculinized
fem-3(gf) mutant.
