Subcellular_localizationGRDN-1a::GFP was broadly expressed during embryogenesis and was enriched at the presumptive nose starting at mid-embryogenesis, coinciding with the time period of sensory neuron differentiation and ciliogenesis (Sulston et al., 1983).The subcellular localization of GRDN-1a::GFP was reminiscent of that previously reported for BB and TZ proteins in embryonic head sensory neurons (e.g., Dammermann et al., 2009). Consistent with this notion, GRDN-1a::GFP was present at the AWB cilia base in larvae, and co-localized with the BB markers DYF-19 and GASR-8 in the PHA/PHB ciliated tail neurons in L1 larvae and adult AWB neurons, respectively. Intriguingly, GRDN-1a::GFP appeared to be enriched at the proximal ends of centrioles, and was completely excluded from the TZ marked by MKS-5::tagRFP. Together, these observations suggest that Girdin is localized to the BBs in C. elegans sensory neurons.
