PatternWe observed NOCA-2 accumulations in several spots in the head and tail of the animal and at the cortex of the epidermal seam cells. Indeed, using the NOCA-2 promoter to express mKate2, we observed a broad expression pattern. Importantly, we detected NOCA-2::GFP in the distal PVD dendrite during neuronal development, which showed a similar localization pattern and dynamics as GIP-2 and RAB-11. In order to validate that NOCA-2 localizes to the MTOC vesicles, we expressed mKate2::RAB-11 in the PVD and observed clear colocalization. In the mature neuron, we could not detect obvious NOCA-2 (nor GIP-2) accumulations at the dendrite tip, which agrees with the loss of distal EBP-2 dynamics.
