Figure 6

Paternal and maternal proteasomes have non-overlapping distributions. A) A newly fertilized embryo with both GFP::Ub (green) and RPT-1::mCherry (red). Colocalization of the two proteins is indicated by the presence of yellow color. This embryo is undergoing maternal meiosis I division at the opposite end (not shown). B) Hermaphrodites expressing RPT-1::mCherry were mated to males expressing RPT-1::GFP. The maternal proteasomes (red) localize to structures that resemble the sperm MOs. Wherease, GFP labeled paternal proteasomes (green) are seen in smaller structures near to the maternal proteasomes. This labeling is only seen in meiosis I embryos, not in later embryos.
