POP-1 and Anterior–Posterior Fate Decisions in C. elegans Embryos Rueyling Lin, Russell J Hill, James R Priess  Cell  Volume 92, Issue 2, Pages 229-239 (January 1998) DOI: 10.1016/S0092-8674(00)80917-4

Figure 1 Early Embryonic Cell Divisions Schematic diagrams of early blastomeres and their cleavage axes. AB and its descendants are outlined in bold. The first two daughters of AB are called ABa and ABp, represented here by the general term ABx. Blastomeres resulting from the second and third divisions in the AB lineage are labeled ABxx, and ABxxa or ABxxp, respectively. The first two divisions in the AB lineage are transverse (lines connected by asterisks). All a/p cleavages are indicated by double-headed arrows; anterior is to the left.

Figure 2 POP-1 Asymmetry in Early Wild-Type Embryos Immunofluorescence micrographs of embryos stained for POP-1 (left column) or DAPI to visualize nuclei (right column). Embryos are oriented with anterior to the left. Sister cells are indicated by double-headed arrows. (A–D) Two focal planes of the same 12 cell–stage embryo showing three of the four pairs of ABxxa/ABxxp sisters; these sisters are born in an a/p division. Note that the anterior sister has a higher level of staining in all cases. (E and F) A 28 cell–stage embryo showing the two pairs of MS granddaughters; these are born in an a/p division (MSaa/MSap, MSpa/MSpp). Note the several prophase-stage nuclei (visible in F) that do not show POP-1 staining. (G and H) An approximately 100 cell–stage embryo showing the two pairs of E granddaughters; these are born from a transverse (left/right) division. (I and J) An approximately 200 cell–stage embryo showing the four pairs of E great-granddaughters; these are born from an a/p division. Cell 1998 92, 229-239DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)80917-4)

Figure 3 POP-1 in Postembryonic Development (A and B) Immunofluorescence micrographs of the left and right sides of a young second stage (L2) larva stained for POP-1. The row of nuclei with alternating high levels (arrows) and low levels of POP-1 correspond to seam cells. POP-1 staining also is seen in the developing gonad (open arrowheads) and in left/right asymmetric migrating cells called Q neuroblasts (closed arrowheads). (C and D) High magnification view of the seam cell nuclei in an L1 larva; seam nuclei are one cell division earlier than the nuclei shown in (A). Larvae were stained simultaneously for POP-1 and for an adherens junction component to outline cell boundaries. Sister cells are indicated by double-headed arrows. Note the higher level of POP-1 in the nucleus of the anterior sister than in the posterior (arrow) sister. Cell 1998 92, 229-239DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)80917-4)

Figure 4 pop-1(+) Is Required for ABxxa/ABxxp Differences in glp-1 Mutants Nomarski photomicrographs of embryos are shown in the left column; fluorescent micrographs of the same embryos are shown in the right column. Genotypes are listed above panels. All embryos carry the fluorescent neuronal marker H20-GFP. Cells with neuronal morphologies (small arrows) and hypodermal morphologies (large arrows) are indicated. In (C), the anterior half of the embryo beneath the arrow is comprised of hypodermal cells. Cell 1998 92, 229-239DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)80917-4)

Figure 5 The Wnt Pathway and POP-1 Asymmetry Immunofluorescence micrographs of embryos (A) or larvae (C and D); genotypes are listed above panels. (A) An embryo is stained for POP-1. All AB descendants (three descendants are indicated by arrows) have similar levels of staining. (B) Nuclei in the embryo shown in (A) stained with DAPI. (C and D) Seam cells in the tail of a male larva stained simultaneously for POP-1 and for adherens junctions to visualize cell boundaries. Sister cells indicated by double-headed arrows. Cell 1998 92, 229-239DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)80917-4)

Figure 6 POP-1 in Partial Embryos Immunofluorescence micrographs of partial embryos stained for POP-1 (left column) and stained with DAPI (right column) to visualize nuclei. (A and B) A partial embryo in which P2 was removed before P2-EMS signaling. The embryo was fixed after the birth of the ABxxa and ABxxp sisters. One of four blastomeres with high POP-1 is visible (arrow), and two of four blastomeres with low POP-1 are visible (arrowheads) on this focal plane. The dividing blastomere (lower right in each panel) is MS or E. (C and D) A partial embryo derived from an EMS blastomere isolated after P2-EMS signaling. EMS was allowed to divide twice, then fixed and stained; POP-1 is high in two EMS descendants (arrows) and low in the other two (arrowheads). (E and F) A partial embryo in which P2 was removed before P2-EMS signaling. The partial embryo was allowed to develop until EMS divided, then fixed and stained. The daughters of EMS (arrows) have similar levels of POP-1. Cell 1998 92, 229-239DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)80917-4)

Figure 7 POP-1 and Lineage Patterns In this model, a cell has an a/p polarity because of the anterior (left) localization of factors that maintain POP-1 at high levels (represented by the black crescent); these factors are partitioned into the anterior (left) daughter at division. Transcription factors B and C are expressed sequentially in the lineage, and in the presence of POP-1 activity, they can change the state of a cell (lowercase, italicized letters). Note that a/p polarity is regenerated at each division in posterior cells independent of POP-1 activity (see Discussion). Cell 1998 92, 229-239DOI: (10.1016/S0092-8674(00)80917-4)
