WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00011601 Gene Name  zim-3
Sequence Name  ? T07G12.11 Brief Description  zim-3 encodes a protein with two C-terminal noncanonical C2H2zinc-fingers whose paralogs include HIM-8, ZIM-1/-2, and C02F5.12; ZIM-3is specifically required for homolog pairing, synapsis, and segregationof chromosomes I and IV during meiosis; zim-3(tm2303) oocytes endingprophase have ~4 bivalents and ~4 univalents, the latter of which areconsistently chromosomes I and IV; ZIM-3 associates with the right endof chromosome I and the left end of chromosome IV, which may indicate anassociation with their pairing centers; while the C-terminal region ofZIM-3 most closely resembles those of its orthologs in otherCaenorhabditis species, its N-terminal region instead most closelyresembles those of its paralogs in C. elegans, indicating coevolving,species-specific functions; ZIM-3 foci, like HIM-8 foci, associate withthe nuclear envelope during meiotic prophase; zim-3 mutants also havesome defective segregation of the X chromosome (yielding a Himphenotype), but this may be an indirect effect of autosomal asynapsis.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Predicted to be involved in meiotic chromosome segregation. Located in condensed nuclear chromosome.
Biotype  SO:0001217 Genetic Position  IV :4.6391±

  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. 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_SM

Temprature shift to 28C for 24 hours. Transcripts that showed significantly decreased expression after animals were exposed to 28C temperature for 24 hours.

  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). 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.

6 Expression Patterns

Remark Reporter Gene Primary Identifier Pattern Subcellular Localization
zim-1, zim-2 and zim-3 localized to discrete chromosome-associated foci.   Expr4561   Localized to chromosome-associated foci that were most prominent in the transition zone and very early pachytene. Often localized to three to four foci at the onset of meiosis and, by early pachytene, were usually observed at two foci. Colocalization with HIM-8 staining indicate that the foci of ZIM protein corresponded to autosomal pairing centers, most probably to the chromosomes that missegregate in the corresponding mutants.
