Subcellular_localizationITX-1 defines a lateral membrane domain basal to the apical junction. However, ITX-1 staining along the apical junction appears as a wider belt differently than the typical AJM/DLG pattern. Moreover, ITX-1 localization is independent of AJM-1, as ajm-1 null mutant embryos show normal ITX-1 staining. Co-labeling of ITX-1 with anti beta-G Spectrin show that it co-localizes with ITX-1 along the entire lateral membrane of gut epithelia.
TypeAntibody
PatternWhole mount antibody staining established the expression of the protein at the baso-lateral membranes of gut epithelia in embryonic and post-embryonic stages. Its expression was restricted to gut and was not observed in other polarized epithelia, such as the pharynx or post-embryonic vulva, uterus, and hypodermis. Immunoelectron microscopy experiments confirmed localization of ITX-1 to intestinal adherens junctions.
