From: SPE-8, a protein-tyrosine kinase, localizes to the spermatid cell membrane through interaction with other members of the SPE-8 group spermatid activation signaling pathway in C. elegans

Figure 6

Localization of the spe-8::GFP translational reporter in activated spermatozoa. Spermatids and spermatozoa were isolated from young adult hermaphrodites (first column). The GFP fluorescence has moved to the cytoplasm in the activated spermatozoa. A similar pattern was seen in spermatids and spermatozoa isolated from young adult males (second column). Spermatozoa activated with Pronase also have cytoplasmic GFP localization (third column, top), but when activated with triethanolamine (TEA), the GFP remains at the membrane (third column, bottom).
