WormMine: Gene WBGene00002042

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00002042
• Gene Name: hus-1
• Sequence Name: H26D21.1
• Brief Description: hus-1 encodes the C. elegans ortholog of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Hus1 DNA damage checkpoint protein; in C. elegans, hus-1 activity is required for DNA damage-induced cell cycle arrest and apoptosis, telomere maintenance, and hence, genome stability and development; specifically, hus-1 is required for the CEP-1/p53-dependent increase in germline egl-1 expression following irradiation; a HUS-1::GFP fusion protein is detected in the nuclei of mitotic and meiotic germ cells, mature oocytes, embryos, and somatic larval cells, particularly those that are proliferating; while HUS-1 localization is generally diffuse throughout these nuclei, following irradiation, HUS-1 localizes to discrete foci that overlap with chromatin; HUS-1 nuclear localization is dependent upon the Rad9 homologue HPR-9 and upon the checkpoint protein MRT-2, with which it interacts in yeast two-hybrid and in vitro assays.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Involved in several processes, including DNA damage response; determination of adult lifespan; and telomere maintenance. Located in germ cell nucleus. Part of chromatin. Expressed in germ line. Is an ortholog of human HUS1B (HUS1 checkpoint clamp component B).

Regulated By Treatment	Description	Algorithm	Primary Identifier
	Transcripts of coding genes that showed significantly decreased expression in muscle.	DESeq2 (version 1.24.0). Transcripts with a false-discovery rate adjusted p-value less than 0.05 were considered significantly differentially expressed.	WBPaper00062325:muscle_depleted_coding-RNA
	Transcripts expressed in neuronal cells, by analyzingfluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) neurons.	DESeq. False discovry rate (FDR) < 0.1.	WBPaper00048988:neuron_expressed
	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.

	Maternal class (M): genes that are called present in at least one of the three PC6 replicates.	A modified Welch F statistic was used for ANOVA. For each gene, regressed error estimates were substituted for observed error estimates. The substitution is justified by the lack of consistency among the most and least variable genes at each time point. Regressed error estimates were abundance-dependent pooled error estimates that represented a median error estimate from a window of genes of similar abundance to the gene of interest. A randomization test was used to compute the probability Pg of the observed F statistic for gene g under the null hypothesis that developmental time had no effect on expression. P-values were not corrected for multiple testing.	[cgc5767]:expression_class_M
	Strictly maternal class (SM): genes that are the subset of maternal genes that are not also classified as embryonic.	A modified Welch F statistic was used for ANOVA. For each gene, regressed error estimates were substituted for observed error estimates. The substitution is justified by the lack of consistency among the most and least variable genes at each time point. Regressed error estimates were abundance-dependent pooled error estimates that represented a median error estimate from a window of genes of similar abundance to the gene of interest. A randomization test was used to compute the probability Pg of the observed F statistic for gene g under the null hypothesis that developmental time had no effect on expression. P-values were not corrected for multiple testing.	[cgc5767]:expression_class_SM
	Genes down regulated by mir-243(n4759).	RNAs that changed at least 2-fold with a probability of p > 0.05 in three biological replicates were considered differentially regulated between wild-type and mir-243.	WBPaper00036130:mir-243_down_regulated

	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
Temprature shift to 28C for 24 hours.	Transcripts that showed significantly decreased expression after animals were exposed to 28C temperature for 24 hours.

• Pattern: Tiling arrays expression graphs

• Primary Identifier: Expr2270
• Subcellular Localization: HUS-1::GFP localization was analyzed in germ cells before and after exposure to ionizing radiation. HUS-1::GFP was diffuse in proliferating germ nuclei and weakly chromatin localized in pachytene cells under normal conditions. However, following exposure to ionizing radiation, HUS-1::GFP concentrates at distinct nuclear foci in all stages of germ cell development. The presence of these foci could be observed as early as 3 hr following exposure to ionizing radiation. These foci overlap with chromatin, as demonstrated by counterstaining with DAPI.
