WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00001103 Gene Name  dsl-1
Sequence Name  ? W09G12.4 Brief Description  dsl-1 encodes a secreted protein with a single DSL and EGF domain inseries, resembling Delta/LAG-2; DSL-1, with APX-1 and LAG-2, iscollectively required for LIN-12/Notch-mediated lateral signalling duringpostembryonic vulval development; DSL-1, when misexpressed by lag-2sequences, can rescue the larval-lethal and anchor cell phenotypes oflag-2(q420ts); dsl-1(RNAi) animals have abnormal vulvae in a geneticbackground sensitized for lateral signalling defects; dsl-1(ok810)mutants, while viable and fertile, have a 4% penetrant defect in lateralsignaling, which exceeds 13% with apx-1 and lag-2 RNAi; dsl-1 is stronglytranscribed in P6.p cells; SUR-2 regulates dsl-1 along with apx-1 andlag-2; DSL-1 belongs to a nematode-specific family of Delta/LAG-2-likeproteins that includes DSL-2, -3, -5, -6, and -7.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Enables Notch binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell fate specification. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Expressed in several structures, including P6.paa; P6.pap; P6.ppa; P6.ppp; and vulval cell.

adult vs dauer larva Transcripts that showed differential expression in adult vs dauer lava in N2 animals at 20C. N.A. WBPaper00050488:adult_vs_dauer_regulated_N2_20C
  Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (embryonic 24hr reference). A Mann-Whitney U test with an empirical background model and FDR correction for multiple testing was used to detect expressed transcripts (Benjamini and Hochberg 1995). Genes and TARs with an FDR <= 0.05 were reported as expressed above background. Authors detected differentially expressed transcripts using a method based on linear models. Genes and TARs were called differentially expressed if the FDR was <= 0.05 and the fold change (FC) >= 2.0. To more strictly correct for potential false-positives resulting from multiple sample comparisons, authors divided individual FDR estimates by the number of samplesor sample comparisons, respectively. This resulted in an adjusted FDR of 1.3 * 0.0001 for expression above background and of 7.4 * 0.0001 for differential expression. Authors called genes selectively enriched in a given tissue if they met the following requirements: (1) enriched expression in a given tissue (FDR <= 0.05 and FC >= 2.0), (2) fold change versus reference among the upper 40% of the positive FC range observed for this gene across all tissues, and (3) fold-change entropy among the lower 40% of the distribution observed for all genes.

  Genes with increased RNA expression after 24 hours rotenone treatment EdgeR provides statistical routines for determining differential expression in digital gene expression data using a model based on the negative binomial distribution. The resulting p-values were adjusted using the Benjamini and Hochbergs approach for controlling the false discovery rate (FDR). Transcripts with an adjusted p-value smaller 0.05 were assigned as differentially expressed. WBPaper00044426:rotenone_24h_upregulated

  Transcripts down regulated in hpl-2(tm1489) embryo comparing to N2 in tiling array analysis. Oligos from the tiling array were mapped to chromosome coordinates of the exons from Wormbase WS180. Any oligo that mapped to a gene on both the Watson and Crick strands was excluded. The remaining oligos were then grouped together (perfect match and mismatch) into probe sets and written out into an Affymetrix CDF file. The CDF file was converted into an R-package and loaded into R. The expression values were calculated using the justRMA function from Bioconductor. This used a Benjamini and Hochberg false discovery rate correction. WBPaper00040560:hpl-2_embryo_downregulated

    Expr10275 Inferred expression. EPIC dataset. http://epic.gs.washington.edu/ Large-scale cellular resolution compendium of gene expression dynamics throughout development. This reporter was inferred to be expressing in this cell or one of its embryonic progenitor cells as described below. To generate a compact description of which cells express a particular reporter irrespective of time, the authors defined a metric "peak expression" for each of the 671 terminal ("leaf") cells born during embryogenesis. For each of these cells, the peak expression is the maximal reporter intensity observed in that cell or any of its ancestors; this has the effect of transposing earlier expression forward in time to the terminal set of cells. This metric allows straightforward comparisons of genes' cellular and lineal expression overlap, even when the expression occurs with different timing and despite differences in the precise time point that curation ended in different movies, at the cost of ignoring the temporal dynamics of expression, a topic that requires separate treatment. For simplicity, the authors use the term "expressing cells" to mean the number of leaf cells (of 671) with peak expression greater than background (2000 intensity units) and at least 10% of the maximum expression in that embryo.
