WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00006808 Gene Name  unc-76
Sequence Name  ? C01G10.11 Brief Description  unc-76 encodes a predicted coiled-coil protein that belongs to the FEZ (fasciculation and elongation protein; zygin/zeta-1) family of proteins; UNC-76 activity is required for normal axonal outgrowth and fasciculation and hence, normal locomotion; UNC-76 expression begins during embryogenesis and is present in all axons throughout development; UNC-76 localizes to both axons and cell bodies.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Enables syntaxin binding activity. Involved in anterograde axonal protein transport; axonal fasciculation; and regulation of cellular component organization. Located in axon; neuronal cell body; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Expressed in neurons and somatic nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in schizophrenia. Is an ortholog of human FEZ1 (fasciculation and elongation protein zeta 1).
Biotype  SO:0001217 Genetic Position  V :7.32052 ±0.012665

  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 expressed in neuronal cells, by analyzingfluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) neurons. DESeq. False discovry rate (FDR) < 0.1. WBPaper00048988:neuron_expressed
  Genes significantly enriched (> 2x, FDR < 5%) in a particular cell-type versus a reference sample of all cells at the same stage. 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.

  mRNAs that showed decreased expression in 1 cell mebryo comparing to in oocyte, according to RNAseq analysis. Gaussian error propagation. As cutoff for the up-regulated genes authors used log2 fold change > 1 and P < 0.05 and as cutoff for the down-regulated genes authors used log2 fold change < -1 and P < 0.05. WBPaper00045420:fertilization_downregulated_transcript
  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).

  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.

No neuronal fluorescence was observed in worms stained with any of the three preimmune sera, and staining was reduced or nearly eliminated in all eight mutant unc-76 strains. Pharyngeal UNC-76 expression was not visible, but pharyngeal cells were probably not made accessible to antibodies during fixation because they lacked the background stain seen in the rest of the animal.   Expr1621 Intense staining showed in all major nerve bundles (the nerve ring and dorsal and ventral nerve cords) and all minor longitudinal and circumferential process tracts and bundles of sensory processes. Staining was visible in neuronal cell bodies but not in nuclei. Outside the pharynx, all neurons, but no other cells, stained with anti-UNC-76 antisera. Specifically, no staining was observed in cells that flank the ventral or dorsal nerve cords, such as body wall muscles or hypodermal cells. UNC-76 staining was visible throughout the nervous system of animals at all developmental stages from newly hatched larvae through adults. Embryos were not sufficiently permeabilized to allow anti-UNC-76 antibody staining, but unc-76::lacZ fusions that appeared to be expressed normally in larvae and adults were expressed in a few cells, the identities of which were not determined, in embryos of about 200 cells, before the outgrowth of the first axons. UNC-76 staining in axons was strong throughout development, whereas cell body staining was strong in young larvae, but weaker in adults except for cell bodies in the head and tail ganglia. Of neurons with laterally positioned cell bodies, only the CAN and HSN cell bodies consistently contained UNC-76 protein in adults. The presence of C terminally truncated UNC-76 proteins in axons of mutant worms suggested that axon-targeting activity of UNC-76 resides in the N-terminal third of the protein. UNC-76 protein was observed throughout the axons of wild-type animals, including some nonfasciculated axon segments known to be normal in unc-76 mutant animals (all motor neuron commissures and the ventral-directed segments of the HSN, PDE, and PVD axons).
