| Subcellular_localization | In cells that express GEM-4::GFP, fluorescence is typically brightest at the plasma membrane. In some cases, punctate staining is also evident within the cytoplasm, possibly due to association with vesicular structures. | ||||
| Type | Reporter_gene | ||||
| Pattern | Expression of GEM-4::GFP within Z1 and Z4 becomes progressively more difficult to detect as the animals progress through L1 and is not detectable within the progeny of Z1 and Z4. GEM-4::GFP expresion within somatic gonadal tissues does not resume until early adulthood. At this point, GEM-4::GFP becomes strongly expressed within the distal spermathecal cells, the spermathecal valve cells, and the uterine epithelial cells. | ||||
| GEM-4::GFP is broadly expressed in embryos that have several hundred cells and continues to be expressed in most cells as the embryo undergoes elongation. | |||||
| In newly hatched L1s, GEM-4::GFP is expressed in the precursors of the somatic gonad (Z1 and Z4), the pharyngo-intestinal valve cells, the intestinal cells, and the head mesodermal cell (the sister of Z4). The germline precursors, Z2 and Z3, also appear to be outlined in some animals; however, it is not clear whether this is due to expression within the germ cells themselves or whether it results from extensions of the plasma membranes of Z1 and Z4. | |||||
