Subcellular_localization | CFI-1 protein is localized to nuclei of staining cells. | ||
Type | Antibody | Rat antibodies against the CFI-1 ARID and examined CFI-1 expression by whole-mount immunofluorescence. | |
Pattern | Expression of CFI-1 was identified in mid-late embryos (twofold and later) and throughout larval development and in the adult. CFI-1 was expressed in a small number of cells in the head and tail regions of the animals, with occasional faint staining in ventral cord neurons. In the head, only neurons and muscle cells expressed CFI-1. In the tail, only four neuronal cells expressed CFI-1. A cfi-1::GFP fusion gene was expressed in a pattern similar to that observed with anti-CFI-1 antisera. Using the cfi-1::GFP and anti-CFI-1 antisera a number of the cells expressing cfi-1 was identified based on their anatomical positions and neuronal morphologies. CFI-1 protein was expressed in IL2 and URA neurons, and in the AVD and PVC interneurons. Weaker expression was detected in the PVC sister neuron LUA. Most, if not all, head muscle cells expressed CFI-1, and m6 and m7 muscles in the pharynx expressed the protein as well. A small number of other cells also stained occasionally. | ||
