PatternExpression of MLT-2, MLT-3, and MLT-4 genes was detected exclusively within the epidermis, including hyp7, beginning in late embryogenesis. MLT-2::mKate2 and MLT-4::GFP displayed similar patterns of expression at the epidermal apical surface within well-separated puncta and also showed strong accumulation at the boundary of hyp7 and seam cells. In more medial planes, both MLT-2 and MLT-4 were more evenly dispersed throughout the cytosol with reduced accumulation at the seam cell boundary. In contrast, accumulation of MLT-3::mKate2 was not highly enriched at the hyp7-seam cell boundary. Like MLT-2 and MLT-4, MLT-3 was expressed in apical puncta, although its expression was stronger and typically more dispersed than that observed for MLT-2 and MLT-4. In medial planes, expression of MLT-2, MLT-3, and MLT-4 was largely excluded from nuclei, but in some cases the tagged proteins exhibited partial enrichment or exclusion within other smaller compartments.
