The Caenorhabditis elegans spe-5 gene is required for morphogenesis of a sperm-specific organelle and is associated with an inherent cold-sensitive phenotype.

Genetics - 1 Jun 1997

Machaca K, L'Hernault S W

Abstract excerpt

The nonrandom segregation of organelles to the appropriate compartment during asymmetric cellular division is observed in many developing systems. Caenorhabditis elegans spermatogenesis is an excellent system to address this issue genetically. The proper progression of spermatogenesis requires specialized intracellular organelles, the fibrous body-membranous organelle complexes (FB-MOs). The FB-MOs play a...
