Consistent with the extrachromosomal expression pattern of FUST-1, endogenously mRFP-tagged FUST-1 was mainly expressed in the nucleus of neurons and intestinal cells. Moreover, FUST-1 was also found in the nuclei in gonads, which was not observed in extrachromosomal expression, probably due to silencing of the multicopy transgenes in the germline (Merritt and Seydoux 2010).
