• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00011887
• Gene Name: set-17
• Sequence Name: T21B10.5
• Brief Description: set-17 encodes a SET domain-containing protein orthologous to human PRDM11 and PRDM7 (Q9NQW5-2; OMIM:609759); SET-17 is expressed in many or all cells of embryo, and several postembryonic tissues (hypodermis, muscle, and excretory cell); neither set-17(n5017) nor set-17(RNAi) have any obvious phenotypes.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Enables histone H3K4 methyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in chromatin remodeling and methylation. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in several structures, including body wall musculature; excretory cell; intestine; primary spermatocyte; and vulval muscle. Is an ortholog of human PRDM7 (PR/SET domain 7).

Bacteria diet: Sphingomonas aquatilis Yellow. Fed for 30 generations.	Transcripts that showed significantly decreased expression after fed by bacteria Sphingomonas aquatilis (Yellow) for 30 generations comparing to animals fed by E. coli OP50.

	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

	Genes with increased RNA expression after 24 hours rotenone treatment	EdgeR provides statistical routines for determining differential expression in digital gene expression data using a model based on the negative binomial distribution. The resulting p-values were adjusted using the Benjamini and Hochbergs approach for controlling the false discovery rate (FDR). Transcripts with an adjusted p-value smaller 0.05 were assigned as differentially expressed.	WBPaper00044426:rotenone_24h_upregulated
	Transcripts that showed significantly decreased expression in tetraploid N2 comparing to diploid N2 animals at L4 larva stage.	DESeq2 R package (1.20.0), fold change > 2, and FDR < 0.05.	WBPaper00066110:tetraploid_vs_diploid_downregulated
	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.

11 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr14356

• Primary Identifier: Expr2061
• Pattern: Expression is seen in a number of components. In embryos weak diffuse expression is seen in many cells (possibly all) from pre-comma stage until after elongation. In larvae and adults, expression in many cells of the hypodermis, in bodywall muscle, in vulval muscle and in the excretory cell.

• Primary Identifier: Expr1035239
• Pattern: Tiling arrays expression graphs

• Primary Identifier: Expr14386
• Subcellular Localization: In hermaphrodites, SET-17::GFP was similarly expressed in primary spermatocytes and localized to nuclear foci. In hermaphrodites, spermatid production occurs during the L4 stage. We also detected SET-17::GFP expression during oocyte production, even though SET-17 does not obviously function in oocytes for fertility. In hypodermal nuclei, the distribution of SET-17::GFP was pan-nuclear, suggesting that SET-17 localization to foci is related to the function of SET-17 in spermatocytes.

• Primary Identifier: Expr1157239

• Primary Identifier: Expr2015761
• Pattern: Single cell embryonic expression. 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. Interactive visualizations are available as a web app (https://cello.shinyapps.io/celegans/) and can also be installed as an R package (https://github.com/qinzhu/VisCello.celegans).

• Primary Identifier: Expr14384
• Pattern: We found that in the male germline SET-17::GFP was expressed predominantly in primary spermatocytes. SET-17::GFP was first detectable at the initiation of spermatocyte differentiation in L4 and adult males. The SET-17::GFP level increased with the stage of spermatocyte progression and peaked in late-stage primary spermatocytes.

• Primary Identifier: Expr14385
• Subcellular Localization: Strikingly, SET-17::GFP localized to foci in the nuclei of primary spermatocytes (males). The SET-17 foci were associated with DNA, ranged from 4-14 per primary spermatocyte and increased in number with overall SET-17::GFP expression.
