| Pattern | Abundant expression was detected in germ cells that had initiated meiosis in wild type hermaphrodites (during sperm and oocyte production) and males. Signal intensity appeared to be higher during oocyte production; this observation was confirmed by comparing fem-1(hc17) hermaphrodites, which make only oocytes, to fem-3(q23) hermaphrodites, which make only sperm. Peak expression occurs at pachytene of the first meiotic division, is absent immediately afterwards, and is detected again in late oogenesis. | Primary Identifier | Expr8211 |
