Name Class

WBPicture0000007411DescriptionMTM-1 is expressed in engulfing cells and localizes to the plasma membrane. DIC and fluorescent confocal images of wild-type animals carrying an integrated array of Pmtm-1MTM-1::GFP are shown. MTM-1 is expressed in several known engulfing cell types including pharyngeal muscle cells (i, ii), hypodermal cells (iii, iv), body wall muscle cells (v, vi) and sheath cells (vii, viii) as indicated by arrows and is mainly localized to cell membranes. MTM-1::GFP also clusters around apoptotic cells (ix, x). Bars: 10 um. (B) DIC (i), GFP (ii), mCHERRY (iii) images and the merged image of GFP and mCHERRY (iv) of a wild-type embryo co-expressing MTM-1::GFP driven by mtm-1 promoter (Pmtm-1mtm-1::gfp) and myri::mCHERRY controlled by heat-shock promoters (Phspmyri::mcherry) are shown. MTM-1::GFP co-localized with myri::mCHERRY to plasma membranes. Bars: 5 um.
