Subcellular_localizationMainly nuclear with some cytoplasmic staining.
TypeAntibodyRabbit polyclonal antibody against full-length CUL-2 recombinant protein.
PatternIn adults, CUL-2 is observed in the germ line, with higher levels in meiotic cells. The highest CUL-2 levels are found in oocytes, where CUL-2 is mainly nuclear with some cytoplasmic staining. Similar to cul-2 mRNA, CUL-2 protein is provided to embryos as maternal product and the level decreases during embryogenesis. During larval development, CUL-2 is found in the following proliferating tissues: P cells during the L1 stage; seam cells when they divide at every molt; vulval and somatic gonad cells in late L3 and L4 stages; and intestinal cells throughout larval development.
RemarkDisruption of cul-2 expression by double-stranded RNA-mediated interference (RNAi) severely reduces the levels of both nuclear and cytoplasmic anti-CUL-2 staining.
