  • Title: Germ plasm: protein degradation in the soma.
    Author: Spike CA, Strome S.
    Journal: Curr Biol; 2003 Oct 28; 13(21):R837-9. PubMed ID: 14588260.
    Abstract:
    Germ plasm is a specialized cytoplasm that is physically segregated to the germline cells during early embryogenesis. Recent results suggest that, in Caenorhabditis elegans, germ plasm is also prevented from accumulating in somatic lineages by a ubiquitin ligase that targets germ plasm proteins for degradation.
