| Subcellular Localization | An mRFP-UNC-50 fusion protein expressed in body-wall muscles displayed a punctate distribution throughout the cytoplasm of the muscle cell. This staining is typical of the Golgi apparatus in Drosophila tissues or muscle myotubes. Indeed, a similar vesicular staining pattern is obtained with the medial Golgi marker alpha-Mannosidase II. When confocal stacks were overlaid, mRFP-UNC-50 and Mannosidase II-GFP staining showed 91 +/- 3% (n=4) colocalization. By contrast, no overlap was observed between mRFP-UNC-50 and the GFP-cytochrome b5 (cb5) fusion, which is ER resident. This demonstrates that at steady state UNC-50 is mainly localized to the Golgi system in C. elegans. |
