SUMO is expressed throughout development and in all cells in C. elegans. (A) Schema of translational fusion of HIS-tagged GFP with smo-1 gene under the control of the endogenous smo-1 promoter and including the endogenous 3′-UTR. (B) Fluorescent images of different developmental stages (L1, L2, L3, dauer, L4, adult hermaphrodite, adult male) of C. elegans stably expressing HIS-tagged GFP::smo-1 construct in RU86. Anterior is to the left, ventral is to the bottom. Scale bar 100 µm.
