Subcellular_localizationInclusion of the entire catp-5 ORF and hence the complete set of predicted transmembrane helices in the catp-5(12.2)::gfp construct led to a membrane-bound GFP signal. Remarkably, the intestinal fluorescence was associated exclusively with the apical membrane that faces the gut lumen.
TypeReporter_gene
PatternFor all transgenic worm lines, fluorescence was detected in the 20 intestinal cells and in the excretory cell. GFP expression was present at all larval stages and in adult worms, but was not found in embryos. Although no alteration in spatial and temporal expression was observed, the catp-5(6.2)::gfp construct led to a brighter fluorescence in all cells, when compared to worms that carried the catp-5(3.9)::gfp construct.
