WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00020496 Gene Name  spat-3
Sequence Name  ? T13H2.5 Brief Description  spat-3 encodes, by transcription from alternative promoters, two large(1092- and 2471-residues) proteins; while residues 162-228 of the largerSPAT-3 protein encode a Ring1 type of zinc-finger domain (like that seenin SEX COMBS EXTRA, an E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RING1 protein ofDrosophila melanogaster), the bulk of SPAT-3 has no obvious similaritiesto other proteins; consistent with its predicted role as a PRC1 component, spat-3 activity is required in vivo for histone H2A ubiquitination; spat-3 is also required for proper positioning of Ray 1 in the male tail, neuronal migration and axon extension, vulval development, and fully wild-type brood sizes; SPAT-3 is also specifically required for PAR protein-dependent cell-polarity, and this requirement is independent ofPAR-2 activity; as with par-3, par-6, pkc-3, and cdc-42, inactivation ofspat-3 (by RNAi or mutation) strongly suppresses the embryonic lethalityof par-2(it5ts) at restrictive temperature; as with nos-3, spat-3 alsosuppresses par-2(lw32), a strong loss-of-function allele; while spat-3par-2 double mutant embryos require PAR-1 for viability, PAR-1 does notregain posterior cortical localization in these embryos, but is insteaddiffused through their cytoplasm.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Enables histone ubiquitin ligase activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of gene expression, epigenetic; negative regulation of vulval development; and nematode male tail tip morphogenesis. Predicted to be part of PcG protein complex and ubiquitin ligase complex. Expressed in several structures, including AIYL; AIYR; SMDDL; and SMDDR. Used to study developmental disorder of mental health. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Luo-Schoch-Yamamoto syndrome and pancreatic ductal carcinoma. Is an ortholog of human RING1 (ring finger protein 1) and RNF2 (ring finger protein 2).

  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 expressed in neuronal cells, by analyzingfluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) neurons. DESeq. False discovry rate (FDR) < 0.1. WBPaper00048988:neuron_expressed
  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 L3 larva and Late reproduction stage (96 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_developing

  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
