Subcellular_localizationWhile HLH-2 accumulation in the DTCs is nuclear, as expected for a transcription factor, HLH-2 is detectable in the cytoplasm as well as the nucleus of other gonadal cells.
TypeAntibody
Reporter_gene
PatternAn hlh-2::lacZ transcriptional reporter appears to be expressed in a similar pattern to HLH-2 protein during the L1 stage.
HLH-2 does not accumulate detectably in any cell of the gonad until Z1 and Z4 have undergone two rounds of division, near the end of the L1 stage. HLH-2 was consistently observed in the DTCs (Z1.aa and Z4.pp) and in the presumptive AC and mature AC. HLH-2 was also weakly and inconsistently present in Z1.pp and Z4.aa (the parents of Z1.ppp and Z4.aaa), as well as their sisters, Z1.pa and Z4.ap.
