Subcellular_localizationImmunofluorescent imaging revealed FLAG signal on the distal gonad of dissected ges-1p::FLAG vpr-1 transgenic worms. Z-stack imaging showed that the N-terminal FLAG signal of VPR-1 is restricted to the surface of the somatic gonad. No FLAG staining was detected inside the syncytium, on oocytes, fertilized embryos, or in the proximal gonad. Taken together, the results provide strong evidencethat N-terminal FLAG-tagged VPR-1 is secreted from intestinal cells and travels to the distal gonad to modulate gonadal development.
