From: The DEAD-box protein MEL-46 is required in the germ line of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans
MEL-46 expression. (A) MEL-46 is expressed throughout the life cycle. Western blot with extracts from wild type worms of the indicated developmental stages, probed with anti-MEL-46 (top) and anti-β-tubulin (bottom). (B) MEL-46 is not restricted to the germ line in the adult. At 25°C, glp-1(q231) animals have no germ line, fem-3(q95gf) animals are somatically hermaphrodite but they only produce sperm, fog-1(q253) animals make only oocytes and no sperm.
