| Primary Identifier | Expr3516 | Subcellular Localization | During postembryonic stages CGH-1 is expressed specifically in the germline. At the distal tip of each hermaphrodite gonad arm, in proliferating germ cells that have not entered meiosis, CGH-1 is present at low levels and is associated with P granules. As germ cells enter meiosis CGH-1 staining levels increase dramatically and CGH-1 appears within the central gonad core, where it is detected in a predominantly punctate pattern. In oocytes at the proximal gonad end CGH-1 continues to be readily detectable in association with P granules and in these additional cytoplasmic particles. CGH-1 is later detected in each of these types of foci during early embryonic stages. |
