Figure 3. Localization of Ciliary Proteins in AWB Cilia. (A-E) Shown are the localization patterns of GFP-tagged (A) STR-1, (B) SRD-23, (C) ODR-3, (D) TAX-2, and (E) OSM-6 in the cilia of an AWB neuron in the indicated growth conditions and genetic backgrounds. For
klp-11 and
bbs-8;
odr-1 mutants, the cilia branch length phenotypes exhibited by a subset of these animals are indicated in a second panel in (A). The asterisk in (A) indicates accumulation at the ciliary base in
kap-1;
osm-3 double mutants. ODR-3::GFP and TAX-2::GFP rescue the corresponding mutant phenotypes, and their localization patterns in these mutant backgrounds are shown. OSM-6::GFP was previously shown to rescue the
osm-6 phenotype in the AWB neurons (Mukhopadhyay et al., 2007). Alleles used were
odr-1(
n1936),
tax-4(
ks11),
egl-19(
n2368gf),
klp-11(
tm324),
kap-1(
ok676),
bbs-8(
nx77),
osm-3(
p802), and
grk-2(
gk268). WT, wild-type. The scale bars are 15 um.(F) Summary of localization patterns of GFP-tagged proteins in AWB cilia.
