WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00006952 Gene Name  wrt-6
Sequence Name  ? ZK377.1 Brief Description  wrt-6 encodes a hedgehog-like protein, with (from N- to C-terminus) asignal sequence, a Wart domain, an short region of low-complexitysequence, and a Hint/Hog domain; WRT-6 is expressed in sheath and socketcells of anterior sensilla, seam cells, and hypodermis; the Hint/Hogdomain is predicted to cut WRT-6 into two halves and then covalentlylink cholesterol to the C-terminus of the Wart domain; the Wart domainis predicted to form a cysteine-crosslinked protein involved inintercellular signalling, and it has subtle similarity to the N-terminalHedge domain of HEDGEHOG proteins; WRT-6 is weakly required for normalmolting; WRT-6 is also required for normal growth to full size andlocomotion; all of these requirements may reflect common defects incholesterol-dependent hedgehog-like signalling or in vesicletrafficking.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Predicted to enable peptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in cell-cell signaling; protein autoprocessing; and system development. Predicted to be located in cell surface; extracellular region; and plasma membrane. Expressed in anterior ganglion (ant); hypodermis; and neuronal sheath cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Hirschsprung's disease; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); and glomerulonephritis (multiple). Is an ortholog of human SHH (sonic hedgehog signaling molecule).

  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 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
  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.

Osmotic stress Transcripts that showed significantly altered expression with 500 mM salt (NaCl) vs 100 mM salt when food was present DESeq(version 1.10.1), FDR < 0.05. WBPaper00050726:OsmoticStress_regulated_Food
Osmotic stress Transcripts that showed significantly altered expression with 500 mM salt (NaCl) vs 100 mM salt when no food was present DESeq(version 1.10.1), FDR < 0.05. WBPaper00050726:OsmoticStress_regulated_NoFood
  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 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

  mRNAs that showed differential expression in activated AAK-2(uthIs202[aak-2 (intron 1)::aak-2(aa1-aa321)::Tomato::unc-54 3'UTR + rol-6(su1006)]), activiated CRTC-1 (uthEx222[crtc-1p::crtc-1 cDNA (S76S, S179A)::tdTomato::unc-54 3'UTR + rol-6(su1006)]), or AAK-2;CRTC-1 comparing to in N2. Genes were tested for differential expression between each mutant strain and wild-type using edgeRs glm method. Briefly, negative binomial models were fitted and dispersion estimates obtained.

For each comparison, genes with less than 5 CPM were filtered and those with at least 50% change and False Discovery Rate (FDR) of 1% or less were considered differentially expressed.
