Interaction_summaryDuring C. elegans embryogenesis, P granule components PGL-1 and PGL-3 in somatic cells are selectively degraded by autophagy, resulting in their exclusive localization in germline cell lineages. We performed genetic screens and isolated a recessive mutation, named epg-11(bp292), that caused the accumulation of GFP::PGL-1 granules in somatic cells during embryogenesis. Immunostaining with specific antibodies showed that endogenous PGL-1 and PGL-3 also accumulated into a large number of aggregates that completely colocalized in somatic cells in epg-11 mutant embryos.
