WormMine: Gene WBGene00001145

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00001145
• Gene Name: eat-16
• Sequence Name: C16C2.2
• Brief Description: The eat-16 gene encodes an RGS protein that affects movement, pharyngeal pumping, egg laying, and synaptic transmission; it genetically interacts with the egl-30 and goa-1 signaling pathways, and is expressed in excitable cells and in the spermatheca.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Enables GTPase activator activity. Involved in several processes, including phospholipase C-inhibiting G protein-coupled receptor signaling pathway; regulation of cell communication; and response to monoamine. Located in cytoplasm; neuron projection; and plasma membrane. Expressed in HSNL; HSNR; neurons; pharyngeal muscle cell; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in bradyopsia 1. Is an ortholog of human RGS9 (regulator of G protein signaling 9).

	Genes with expression level regulated by genotype (N2 vs CB4856) and age at L3 larva and Late reproduction stage (96 hours at 24 centigrade).	For model 2, authors used 100 permutations to estimate the FDR threshold. Per permutation, genotypes and ages were independently randomly distributed, keeping the among-gene structure intact. Then for each spot (23,232) on the array, model 2 was tested. The obtained P-values were used to estimate a threshold for each of the explanatory factors. Authors also used a genome-wide threshold of -log10 P-value = 2, which resembles an FDR of 0.072 and 0.060 for marker and the interaction age-marker for the developing worms and FDR of 0.050 and 0.065 for marker and age-marker for the aging worms. For the physiological age effect, authors used a log10 P-value = 8 in developing worms (0.012 FDR) and -log10 P-value = 6 (0.032 FDR).	WBPaper00040858:eQTL_age_regulated_developing

9 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr1030727
• Pattern: Tiling arrays expression graphs

• Primary Identifier: Expr1333
• Pattern: Examination of transgenic animals carrying pGP16 using confocal microscopy showed that EAT-16 is expressed in most or all neurons, including the hermaphrodite specific neuron (HSN), as well as in the vulval and pharyngeal muscles. Expression was also occasionally seen in the spermatheca and body wall muscles.

• Primary Identifier: Expr8085
• Remark: Picture: Figure S2A.
• Pattern: Broadly expressed in neurons.

• Primary Identifier: Expr8867
• Remark: Picture: Supplemental Figure 2A and 2E.
• Subcellular Localization: In wild-type animals EAT-16 staining was observed in tight rings around neuronal cell bodies, consistent with plasma membrane localization. This staining was absent in eat-16(null) mutants confirming the specificity of the antibody.

• Primary Identifier: Expr8866
• Remark: Picture: Figure 6A.
• Subcellular Localization: EAT-16 is predominantly membrane-associated. The majority of EAT-16 in wild-type animals fractionated in the pellet in the absence of detergent, and was solubilized by the addition of the non-ionic detergent Triton X-100.

• Primary Identifier: Expr2011152
• Pattern: Single cell embryonic expression. Only cell types with an expression fraction of greater 0.2 of the maximum expressed fraction are labeled (Full data can be downloaded from http://caltech.wormbase.org/pub/wormbase/datasets-published/packer2019/). The colors represent the broad cell class to which the cell type has been assigned. The size of the point is proportional to the log2 of the numbers of cells in the dataset of that cell type. Interactive visualizations are available as a web app (https://cello.shinyapps.io/celegans/) and can also be installed as an R package (https://github.com/qinzhu/VisCello.celegans).
