Two bands of TRA-1 protein (90 kD and 40 kD) are detected, and both are more abundant in the
gld-1(
q361) animals compared with wild-type controls. Immunofluorescence comparing the pattern and levels of TRA-1 in the germ line of wild-type and
gld-1(
q361lf) animals shows that less TRA-1 is detected in the germ line of wild-type hermaphrodites than in
gld-1(
q361lf) animals.
