Patternspe-5 mRNA is dramatically up regulated in wild type (wt) males as compared to spe-5 mutant males and, also, in fem-3 gain of function (gf; female soma, male germline) as compared to fem-3 loss of function (lf; female soma, female germline) worms. Adult wt hermaphrodites continue to show significant spe-5 expression after they have completed spermatogenesis, as do fem-3 loss of function (lf; female soma, female germline) worms. These data indicate that, while spe-5 expression is up regulated during spermatogenesis, it is also expressed in one or more other tissues.
