  Subcellular_localization: sorb-1::gfp was strongly expressed in all body wall muscles, where the protein tagged with green fluorescent protein (GFP) localized to adhesion plaques between myocytes and to dense bodies. SORB-1::GFP was also observed in muscle arm attachment sites at the nerve ring, where protrusions from head muscles form contacts with the basement membrane (White et al., 1986). SORB-1::GFP was also observed in all nonstriated muscles of C. elegans with the exception of the pharynx, localizing exclusively to integrin adhesion sites. Fluorescent signal localized strongly to the origins and insertions of the vulval and anal depressor muscles as well as to the spicule-associated and diagonal muscles of the male tail. In myocytes more closely resembling vertebrate smooth muscle, such as the uterus, stomatointestinal muscle, and proximal gonad sheath, GFP signal was present in small puncta present throughout the tissue).
