WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00003954 Gene Name  pcm-1
Sequence Name  ? C10F3.5 Brief Description  pcm-1 encodes, by alternative splicing, two isoforms of an L-isoaspartate O-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.77) required for longevity of starved L1 and dauer larvae, and perhaps for autophagy; PCM-1 is orthologous to human PCMT1 (OMIM:176851) and is predicted to repair age-damaged proteins; PCM-1 is biochemically active in vitro, but lacks the D-aspartyl-methylase activity of human PCMT1; PCM-1 levels increase twofold in dauer larvae; as starved L1 larvae, pcm-1 mutants exhibit abnormally poor survival as either starved L1 or dauer larvae, with twice the normal level of damaged proteins accumulating in dauers; pcm-1 mutants also show reduced GFP::LGG-1 fluorescence, suggesting defective autophagy.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Enables protein-L-isoaspartate (D-aspartate) O-methyltransferase activity. Involved in multicellular organismal response to stress; regulation of autophagy; and response to starvation. Located in axon; cytosol; and neuronal cell body. Expressed in several structures, including alimentary muscle; dorso-rectal ganglion; gonad; somatic nervous system; and vulval muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease and malignant astrocytoma. Is an ortholog of human PCMT1 (protein-L-isoaspartate (D-aspartate) O-methyltransferase).

  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.

  Genes up regulated in alg-1(gk214) comparing to in N2. Differential expression was assessed using an empirical Bayes statistics using the eBayes function. WBPaper00040823:alg-1(gk214)_upregulated
  Genes with expression level regulated by genotype (N2 vs CB4856) and age at old adults stage (214 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_aging
  Transcripts that showed significantly increased expression in day 1 adult hermaphrodite comparing to in L4 larva glp-1(e2141) animals. Fold change > 2, FDR < 0.05 WBPaper00064088:Day-1-adult_vs_L4_upregulated_glp-1(e2141)
  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 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
  Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (L2 all cell 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).

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.

  Genes regulated by DAF-16, 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.

Picture: Fig. 4B to 4J. Similar results were reported for these constructs by Dr. Colin Thacker, who generated these strains at Worm Core Facility at the University of Utah.   Expr8703 In L4 larvae expressing the PCM-1::GFP construct, there appears to be high levels of cytoplasmic expression in the body wall, vulva, enteric and pharengyl muscles, all neural cords, neuronal cell bodies (head region, lateral interneurons and tail region), gonad, distal tip and spermatheca. This expression pattern remained the same for all normal larval stages observed, excluding embryos in which no pcm-1 expression was observed. Authors did not detect significant expression in intestinal tissues. Cytoplasmic expression was observed in muscle. Expressed in all neural cords and neuronal cell bodies.
