WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00002246 Gene Name  lag-2
Sequence Name  ? Y73C8B.4 Brief Description  lag-2 encodes a transmembrane protein of the Delta/Serrate/Lag-2 (DSL) family that functions as a signaling ligand for the GLP-1 and LIN-12 Notch-like receptors; LAG-2 is required for larval viability and for cell fate decisions involving the germline (meiosis vs mitosis), the somatic gonad, and the early embryo; in addition, LAG-2 functions redundantly with the transmembrane APX-1 and secreted DSL-1 ligands to regulate lateral signaling during vulval development; LAG-2 is expressed in the distal tip cell of the somatic gonad, the ventral nerve cord, the descendants of ABalap and MSap in the developing embryo, and in all six vulval precursor cells (VPCs) during the early L3 stage, with later expression in the VPCs generally restricted to P6.p; lag-2 expression in the vulval cells is regulated by the LET-23/EGF receptor signaling pathway and the SUR-2 component of the Mediator transcription complex.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Enables Notch binding activity. Involved in several processes, including maintenance of dauer; regulation of basement membrane organization; and regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in cell projection membrane and neuronal cell body membrane. Expressed in several structures, including distal tip cell; germ line; hypodermal cell; neurons; and vulval cell.

  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.

  Coexpression clique No. 203, sre-33-ZK1025.1_8337, on the genome-wide coexpression clique map for the nematode GPL200 platform. All available microarray datasets for the GPL200 platform (Affymetrix C. elegans Genome Array) were obtained from the GEO repository. This included 2243 individual microarray experiments. These were normalized against each other with the software RMAexpress (Bolstad, 2014). Based on these normalized values, Pearsons correlation coefficients were obtained for each probe-probe pair of the 22,620 probes represented on this array type. The resulting list of correlation coefficients was then ranked to generate the ranked coexpression database with information on each probe represented on the GPL200 platform.

  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

  Genes regulated by DPY-21, according to whole transcriptome profiling to compare genome-wide regulatory influences of DPY-21 and SET-4 to those of the key transcription factors controlling dauer arrest in eak-7;akt-1 animals, DAF-16 and DAF-12. Authors identified genes differentially expressed between wild-type and eak-7;akt-1 double mutant animals [fold change >= 1.5 and false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.05]. Authors then compared the transcriptomes of eak-7;akt-1 double mutants to those of eak-7;akt-1 animals harboring mutations in dpy-21, set-4, daf-16, or daf-12, and identified genes that are differentially expressed in the opposite direction as in wild-type relative to eak-7;akt-1. Annotated gene expression data output from CuffDiff v2.2.1 was read into R version 3.2.1 for six comparisons: eak-7;akt-1 compared to (1) wild-type, (2) daf-16(mu86);eak-7;akt-1, (3) daf-12;eak-7;akt-1, (4) set-4(n4600);eak-7;akt-1, (5) set-4(dp268);eak-7;akt-1, and (6) dpy-21;eak-7;akt-1. Authors filtered genes by the following criteria: (1) status = OK for wild-type vs. eak-7;akt-1, (2) fold change (FC) >= 1.5 or FC <= 1/1.5 for wild-type vs. eak-7;akt-1 and (3) FDR < 0.05 for at least two separate comparisons.

23 Expression Patterns

Remark Reporter Gene Primary Identifier Pattern Subcellular Localization
    Expr4226 LAG-2/Venus protein was found in DTC and also weakly in germ cells, suggesting that the fusion protein is secreted by DTC to proximal gonadal cells.  
    Expr1031320 Tiling arrays expression graphs  
    Expr11520 lag-2p::gfp is expressed in many head neurons of adult C. elegans including the AVA, one of the command interneurons (arrow) that regulates locomotion and helps initiate reversals in response to aversive stimuli.  
Picture: Figure 1A, 1B. Reporter gene fusion type not specified.   Expr8182 Six head neurons expressed lag-2::GFP specifically at the onset of and throughout the dauer stage. The same level of lag-2::GFP expression was observed in dauer larvae induced by dauer pheromone, starvation, or by Daf-c mutations in the three known parallel pathways, suggesting that lag-2 expression is activated downstream of the three major signalling pathways involved in dauer formation. Moreover, authors did not detect any change in the expression level of the lag-2::GFP transgene between newly induced (4 hours post-induction), and older (96 hours post-induction) dauers, suggesting that the expression of the Notch ligand is sustained throughout the dauer stage.  
Reporter gene fusion type not specified.   Expr1578 In adult hermaphrodites carrying either lag-2 5'::lacZ or lag-2::lacZ(intra), beta-galactosidase was observed in the DTC. In adult hermaphrodites carrying lag-2 5'::lacZ, expression was observed exclusively in the DTC nuclei. Beta-galactosidase was found in 62% (30/48) of the DTCs examined in lag-2 5'::lacZ animals, but it was not observed in the germ line or in any non-gonadal cells of these hermaphrodites. Similarly, in adult hermaphrodites carrying lag-2::lacZ(intra), beta-galactosidase was observed in 100% (42/42) of the DTCs examined. In addition to the consistent DTC staining of lag-2::lacZ(intra) animals, there are beta-galactosidase observed within the germ line of 36% (15/42) of the gonads. This germline staining appeared to extend some distance from the distal tip cell. This germline staining was unexpected. LAG-2:: beta-gal(intra) is predicted to have beta-galactosidase on the intracellular side of the fusion protein, which should reside within the cytoplasm of the distal tip cell. Some variable staining was also seen outside the gonad of lag-2::lacZ(intra) animals: a single uncharacterized cell stained positively with X-gal within the head of 2/21 animals, a few cells were positive in the pharynx of 1/21 animals, and a few uncharacterized cells were positive in the tail of 1/21 animals. nuclei
Expr_pattern were examined using qExAPX, the stable line before integration.   Expr1587 Abundant in the distal tip cells and can be detected in the germ line.  
    Expr14503 The lag-2 promoter is specific to the DTC in L4 and adult stages. We observed broader lag-2 expression in the L1 stage in the somatic gonad precursors Z1 and Z4 and in the L2 stage in the seam cells.  
Reporter gene fusion type not specified.   Expr1611 Expression was observed in descendants of both ABalap and MSap. Reproducible beta-galactosidase was first observed in all four ABala granddaughters at the 55-cell (late 32 AB-cell) stage in embryos expressing the lag-2::lacZ reporter. Beta-galactosidase was not detected in any other cells of the AB lineage at this stage in development. Expression of beta-galactosidase was also observed in MSap descendants; at the 87-cell (64 AB-cell) stage, beta-galactosidase was observed in MSapa and MSapp, the daughters of MSap. Beta-galactosidase expression in both the ABala and MSap lineages persists for at least two rounds of cell division. This observation may reflect actual expression of the lag-2 gene, rather than a perdurance of beta-galactosidase protein, because an engineered beta-galactosidase with a short half-life was used in the construction of the translational fusion. No lag-2 expression were observed in ABalap and MSap, the proposed signaling cells of the ABplaa and ABplpa inductions, respectively. Instead, lag-2 expression was first detected at later stages, in descendants of these cells.  
Reporter gene fusion type not specified.   Expr3843 Both transgenes qIs56 and qIs19 have similar GFP expression in the DTC, but qIs56 has brighter GFP expression in the ventral nerve cord than qIs19. The wild-type male linker cell expresses lag-2::GFP intensely.  
    Expr9326 lag-2 is expressed in P6.p, the AC, and the distal tip cells (DTCs), consistent with known functional roles for lag-2. Expression in the VPCs is restricted to P6.p and its descendants.  
This information was extracted from published material (Archana Sharma-Oates, Andrew Mounsey and Ian A. Hope).   Expr632 The lag-2::lacZ gene is expressed in both Z1.ppp and Z4.aaa when they are born, however, as the gonad primordium is forming, expression in only observed in one of these two cells. Once the primordium has formed, it becomes clear that only the AC stains.  
    Expr1024242 Developmental gene expression time-course. Raw data can be downloaded from ftp://caltech.wormbase.org/pub/wormbase/datasets-published/levin2012  
    Expr12809 lag-2::gfp is present in cells immediately adjacent to ventral M lineage cells, but not next to dorsal M lineage cells. Further co-localization using the MH27 monoclonal antibody indicated that the lag-2::gfp expressing cells near the M lineage are hypodermal cells.  
No detailed description on cellular expression patterns in other life stage or tissue. The 5 flanking regions of lag-2 (6.2 kb upstream) was inserted into vector pPD16.51. Expr2843 Expression of the transcriptional reporter for lag-2 is evident in all six VPCs in the early L3 stage, but then appears to be much more highly expressed in P6.p while the expression in the other VPCs diminishes or becomes undetectable. Expression continues in P6.p descendants.

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).  
    Expr14675   LAG- 2::mNeonGreen decorated the germ-cell-facing membrane of the DTC, including much of the membrane that makes up its long, enwrapping processes (n = 9/9 animals). However, LAG-2::mNeonGreen was not detected in the muscle.
    Expr12426 An integrated lag-2p::GFP transgene is strongly expressed in the DTCs throughout the dauer stage.  
    Expr13490 A lag-2 1.0 kb promoter drove reporter expression in head neurons, as well as in the DTC.  
    Expr13496 Both 1st fate markers lag-2p::yfp and apx-1p::yfp were expressed as L2d larvae molt into dauer. The expression of 1st fate markers was extinguished in the VPCs of dauer larvae whereas the VPC identity markers were maintained.

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).
