Subcellular_localizationIn embryos, WAN-1::GFP exhibited a punctate, cytoplasmic staining pattern which overlapped with that of the mitochondrion-specific fluorescent dye, Mitotracker Red, indicating that WAN-1 is localized to mitochondria. To confirm this, WAN-1Flag was expressed in HEK293 cells. It also displayed a punctate staining pattern that completely overlapped with that of Mitotracker Red. A further subcellular fractionation analysis revealed that WAN-1Flag existed in the same fraction with that of cytochrome c. These results indicate that WAN-1 indeed localizes to mitochondria.

PatternWAN-1::GFP expression was observed from embryonic to adult stages. In adult worms, WAN-1::GFP was seen in a wide range of tissues including the intestines, hypoderm, vulva, and some neurons.
