PatternmScarlet::PEZO-1, and PEZO-1::mScarlet were widely expressed from embryonic stages through adulthood. Notably, PEZO-1 is strongly expressed in several tubular tissues, including the pharyngeal-intestinal and spermathecal-uterine valves. Under higher magnification, we observed PEZO-1 on the plasma membranes of oocytes and embryonic cells during a variety of embryonic stages, suggesting PEZO-1 is a transmembrane protein. PEZO-1 is expressed in multiple reproductive tissues, including the germline, somatic oviduct, and spermatheca. Higher magnification imaging of the spermatheca revealed expression of PEZO-1 on sperm membranes as well. Live imaging and detailed analysis of PEZO-1 expression patterns during reproduction revealed that GFP::PEZO-1 is expressed in sheath cells, sperm, both spermathecal valves and the spermathecal bag cells.
