Caenorhabditis elegans expressing a Vitellogenin::GFP fusion protein show reduced embryo content and brood size

Vitellogenin::GFP fusion proteins have been used in several studies of the synthesis, endocytosis, and function of yolk in Caenorhabditis elegans. Here we report that one commonly used transgenic strain harboring a vit-2::gfp fusion displays defects in reproduction that lead to a significantly decre...

description Vitellogenin::GFP fusion proteins have been used in several studies of the synthesis, endocytosis, and function of yolk in Caenorhabditis elegans. Here we report that one commonly used transgenic strain harboring a vit-2::gfp fusion displays defects in reproduction that lead to a significantly decreased embryo content and brood size in adult worms.
