Endogenous GFP fluorescence from a rescuing HAF-6::GFP fusion protein (Figure 4, plasmid pLT531) and immunolocalizations using anti-HAF-6 and control antibodies were used to investigate subcellular distribution patterns. (A) HAF-6::GFP fluorescence patterns in live animals (left and center) are similar to the patterns observed in fixed animals decorated with an anti-HAF-6 antibody (right). White arrows, intestinal nuclei; red arrows, autofluorescent granules. (B) The HAF-6::GFP protein (left) is localized to the same compartment as calreticulin (CRT-1), a primarily ER resident with a C-terminal KDEL sequence. Similar results were obtained in cohybridization experiments using the anti-HAF-6 antibody with anti-CRT-1. HAF-6 is a transmembrane protein, and 100% spectral overlap with CRT-1 is not anticipated; nonetheless, co-compartmentalizaion is observed. (C) Cohybridization experiments were performed in transgenic animals expressing both endogenous HAF-6 and a HAF-6::GFP fusion protein. The signals from anti-GFP and anti-HAF-6 overlapped, indicating that the fusion protein is expressed in all the compartments where the endogenous protein is located. Confocal images were captured using a Zeiss LSM 510 META. Bars, 5 um on all panels except A (10 um).
