HIS-72 and HIS-74 are visible on the condensed chromatin in the mitotic, transition, and pachytene zones. The signal of both proteins is depleted from one region of the chromatin in pachytene nuclei, as previously noted for HIS-72 (Ooi et al. 2006). Both proteins are depleted from the X chromosomes in these cells. During diakinesis, both HIS-72 and HIS-74 remain chromatin associated, but there are also high levels of the nonchromatin-associated protein in the nucleoplasm, obscuring the chromosomal GFP signal, as previously shown for HIS-72 (Ooi et al. 2006). The similarities of expression patterns and chroma- tin association suggest that the broad chromosomal incorporation in germ cells is similar for both proteins.
