WormMine: Gene WBGene00012360

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00012360
• Gene Name: tat-3
• Sequence Name: W09D10.2
• Brief Description: tat-3 encodes one of six C. elegans subfamily IV P-type ATPase that, by sequence similarity, is proposed to function as an aminophospholipid translocase (flippase); loss of tat-3 function via RNAi or deletion mutation results in no obvious developmental or morphological defects, however loss of tat-3 function can enhance the sterol deprivation hypersensitivity seen in tat-4 mutants; a tat-3::gfp promoter fusion is expressed beginning at embryogenesis and continuing through adulthood with expression detected in pharyngeal cells, rectal epithelial cells, hypodermal cells (particularly the seam cells), the XXX cells, unidentified cells in the head and tail, the distal tip cell, anchor cell and vulval cells.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Predicted to enable ATPase-coupled intramembrane lipid transporter activity. Involved in sterol metabolic process. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Expressed in several structures, including XXX cell; anchor cell; distal tip cell; pharynx; and vulva. Is an ortholog of human ATP10A (ATPase phospholipid transporting 10A (putative)) and ATP10D (ATPase phospholipid transporting 10D (putative)).

	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.

	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (embryonic 0hr 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: Expr2035436
• 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: Expr12798
• Pattern: tat-3 reporter signal first appears in embryos in the developing pharynx. In the fully formed alimentary system, very strong GFP fluorescence is observed in the muscle, marginal and buccal epithelial cells of the pharynx, the pharyngeal-intestinal valve and, with lesser intensity, the rectal epithelial cells. Seam cells display very strong fluorescence as soon as this lineage becomes established during embryonic development. In adults, moderate to weak fluorescence seems to arise from the XXX cells, some unidentified cells in the head and tail regions and the hypodermis. In the reproductive system, tat-3 reporter expression begins in the distal tip cells (DTC) in L1 and in the anchor cell (AC) in early L3. GFP signal is later visible in the dividing progeny of the vulval precursor cells (VPCs). In late L4, the anchor cell fuses with the uterine seam cell (utse), which does not express the reporter. The vulval cells continue exhibiting moderate fluorescence into the adulthood.

• Primary Identifier: Expr7884
• Remark: Picture: Figure 1. The tat-3::nlsSV40-gfp and tat-3::nlsSV40-gfp-nlsEGL-13 transgenic nematodes exhibit essentially the same tissue-specific pattern of reporter expression. In the tat-3::nlsSV40-gfp nematodes, the NLSSV40-GFP reporter fails to significantly accumulate in the nucleus and, under the UV illumination, the nuclei of the fluorescent cells are indistinguishable from the cytoplasm. As a result, identification of cells expressing the reporter is difficult. In contrast, in the same pharyngeal cells with expression of the NLSSV40-GFP-NLSEGL-13 reporter, the difference in intensity between the cytoplasmic and nuclear fluorescence is dramatic, and the fluorescent nuclei are clearly discernable. The NLSSV40-GFP-NLSEGL-13 reporter seems to be more nuclear and to provide a much better contrast in the fluorescence intensity between the nucleus and the cytoplasm than even 4NLSSV40-GFP. Neither reporter is detectable in the hypodermal cytoplasm. The intensity of nuclear fluorescence in the tat-3::nlsSV40-gfp animals is similarly barely above the threshold of detection. In contrast, NLSSV40-GFP-NLSEGL-13 strongly accumulates in the hypodermal nuclei and unambiguously reveals itself in this tissue.
• Pattern: A strong GFP signal is detectable in these animals in a subset of pharyngeal cells. The tat-3::nlsSV40-gfp and tat-3::nlsSV40-gfp-nlsEGL-13 transgenic nematodes also express the reporters in the hypodermis. In addition to the pharynx and hypodermis, expression of the two reporters is also evident in the seam, anchor, distal tip, and adult vulval cells, and at lower levels, in the progeny of the vulval precursor cells and some unidentified cells in the head and tail regions.
