WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00002090 Gene Name  ins-7
Sequence Name  ? ZK1251.2 Brief Description  ins-7 encodes an insulin/IGF-1-like peptide; INS-7 is one of 40 insulin-like peptides in C. elegans; INS-7 likely functions as an agonist for the DAF-2 insulin/IGF-1 receptor, as loss of ins-7 activity via RNAi results in: 1) a significantly increased lifespan that is not further extended in long-lived daf-2 mutant animals, and 2) an increased frequency of dauer formation in animals containing an incompletely penetrant daf-2 mutation; an ins-7 promoter fusion is expressed in amphid sensory neurons, labial neurons, the nerve ring, and ventral cord and tail neurons; ins-7 expression is positively regulated by DAF-2-mediated insulin signaling, suggesting that a positive feedback loop involving INS-7 may amplify DAF-2 pathway activity.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Predicted to enable hormone activity. Involved in olfactory learning. Predicted to be located in extracellular region and membrane. Expressed in several structures, including distal tip cell; egg-laying apparatus; head muscle; neurons; and somatic nervous system.
Biotype  SO:0001217 Genetic Position  IV :4.35256 ±0.001133

  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
  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.

Picture: Fig. 2. Reporter gene fusion type not specified.   Expr7824 Previously, Pins-7::gfp was reported to be expressed exclusively in neurons (see Expr869). However, authors observed that some animals carrying Pins-7::gfp (about 12%) also expressed Pins-7::gfp in intestinal cells. In addition, intestinal (but not neuronal) Pins-7::gfp expression increased with age. On day 8 of adulthood, about 30% of animals exhibited intestinal Pins-7::gfp expression. Not every intestinal cell expressed Pins-7::gfp in these animals. Instead, apparently random subsets of intestinal cells expressed the transgene in different animals.  
    Expr10634 Pins-7::gfp is expressed in multiple tissues, including several head neurons and the intestine, consistent with previous findings (Murphy et al., 2007). The ins-7-expressing head neurons include ADF, ASI, ASK, and URX among others.
