WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00004364 Gene Name  ric-4
Sequence Name  ? Y22F5A.3 Brief Description  ric-4 encodes an ortholog of vertebrate SNAP-25 and S. cerevisiae Sec9p; SNAP-25 is associated with synaptosomes, required for axonal growth in vivo, and targeted by botulinum neurotoxins; UNC-86 and MEC-3 are required for ric-4 expression, and act on a regulatory element (I2h) in ric-4 conserved between the first introns of C. elegans and C. briggsae ric-4 genes; other conserved motifs in the promoter region (P1 and P2) and first intron (I1h, I1m, I2h, and I2m) are required for ric-4 expression in DA and DD motor neurons (P1), DB and DA neurons (I1m and I2m), amphid and phasmid neurons (P2), pharyngeal neurons (I1h), and mechanosensory neurons (I2h); loss of ric-4 function via RNAi results in aldicarb resistance, indicating that ric-4 plays a role in synapse structure and function.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Predicted to enable SNAP receptor activity and syntaxin binding activity. Involved in cholinergic synaptic transmission. Located in plasma membrane and synapse. Expressed in several structures, including CAN; excretory gland cell; mechanosensory neurons; rectal gland cell; and somatic nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Down syndrome and congenital myasthenic syndrome 18. Is an ortholog of human SNAP25 (synaptosome associated protein 25).

Regulated By Treatment Description Algorithm Primary Identifier
  Genes with expression altered >= 3-fold in dpy-10(e128) mutants. Data across the wild type series was analyzed using the Significance analysis of Microarrays (SAM) algorithm (to calculate the False Discovery Rate (FDR)). WBPaper00035873:dpy-10_regulated
  Transcripts that showed significantly increased expression in L1 neural cells comparing to in adult neural cells. DESeq2 (v1.18.1) fold change > 2, P-adj<0.05, using BenjaminiHochberg correction. WBPaper00060811:L1_vs_adult_upregulated_neural
  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.

adult vs dauer larva Transcripts that showed differential expression in adult vs dauer lava in N2 animals at 20C. N.A. WBPaper00050488:adult_vs_dauer_regulated_N2_20C
  TGF- Dauer pathway adult transcriptional targets. Results obtained by comparing the microarray results of the dauer-constitutive mutants daf-7(e1372), daf-7(m62), and daf-1(m40) with dauer-defective mutants daf-3(mgDf90), daf-5(e1386), and daf-7(e1372);daf-3(mgDf90) double mutants at the permissive temperature, 20C, on the first day of adulthood.

Bacteria infection: Enterococcus faecalis Genes with increased expression after 24 hours of infection by E.faecalis Fold changes shown are pathogen vs OP50.

For log2 fold changes > 0.00001 the values > 81.25th percentile were defined as up-regulated and for log2 fold changes < -0.00001 the values < 18.75th percentile were defined as down-regulated.

    Expr2765 SNAP-25 appears to be expressed solely in the nervous system, including the nerve ring, commissures, and ventral and dorsal nerve cords. The previously characterized C. elegans synaptotagmin protein, which is expressed in neurons as well as other secretory cells, colocalizes with SNAP-25 at the presumable synapses in the nervous system but, unlike synaptotagmin, SNAP-25 is not present in the vas deferens or somatic gonad cells. SNAP-25 was not mislocalized in unc-104 mutant animals in which synaptic vesicle transport is impaired, supporting the notion that it is associated with the plasma membrane.
