Pattern | MET-2 was visualized with several reagents, including anti-MET-2 antibody, epitope-tagged transgene generated by mosI-mediated single copy insertion (mosSCI), and endogenously-tagged MET-2 generated by CRISPR-Cas9 editing. These reagents detected nuclear MET-2 throughout the germ line. We observed MET-2 puncta superimposed on a more diffuse signal in germline nuclei and, to a lesser extent, cytoplasm in both male and hermaphrodite germ lines. The MET-2 distribution appeared to shift as germ cells moved from the proliferative region into and through meiosis; nuclear puncta were more obvious in mitotic and leptotene-zygotene nuclei, and the signal became more evenly distributed as nuclei entered and progressed through pachytene stage. We conclude that germline MET-2 comprises nuclear and cytoplasmic pools. | |||
