WBPaper00061479:hda-1(ne4752)_upregulated
	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (L3/L4 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). 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.

7 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr1033184
• Pattern: Tiling arrays expression graphs

• Primary Identifier: Expr11910
• Pattern: dcar-1 was expressed on the apical surface in the main epidermal syncytium hyp7 and confirmed its reported neuronal expression domain (in the neurons ASH, ASI and PVQ).

• Primary Identifier: Expr9896
• Reporter Gene: [dcar-1::GFP] transcriptional fusion. The dcar-1 (C06H5.7) genomic region was prepared using internal primers from cosmid E01B7. For the dcar-1::GFP fusion, 4 kb of sequence upstream of the dcar-1 gene as well as DNA encoding of the first 150 aa of the predicted DCAR-1 protein were amplified by PCR and subcloned into the pPD95.77 vector in-frame with GFP.
• Pattern: In transgenic animals, dcar-1::GFP was expressed in some sensory neurons and in some non-neuronal cells. In sensory neurons, dcar-1::GFP was expressed in several amphid chemosensory neurons including the ASH neurons. dcar-1::GFP was also expressed in the ASI sensory neurons, the uv1 neuroendocrine cells, the uterine toroid cells, and the PVQ interneurons.

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.
