	Transcripts that showed significantly increased expression in mep-1(ne4629[MEP-1-GFP-Degron]) in gonads dissected from 1-day old adult animals.	Salmon was used to map the mRNA-seq reads with the worm database WS268, and its output files were imported to DESeq2 in R. The differentially expressed genes were filtered by fold change more than 2 and adjusted p-value < 0.05. The scatter plots were generated by the plot function in R.	WBPaper00061479:mep-1(ne4629)_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: Expr8586
• Remark: Picture: Figure 5a, 5b..
• Pattern: Transgenic C. elegans expressing the cuti-1::gfp translational transgene (WT030) displayed GFP expression in the developing hypodermis of mid- and late-stage embryos. GFP expression was also observed in the epithelia throughout development until the fourth-stage larva. At no time was GFP observed in adult stages. Expression was seen exclusively in the cytoplasm of the hypodermis, in the vulval and anal epithelium, and in the excretory pore. Strong expression was also observed in the seam cells and at the seam cell boundary. All of these tissues are covered by cuticle or involved in cuticle synthesis and secretion.
• Subcellular Localization: Within the hypodermis, GFP expression was observed at small discrete points, possibly corresponding to vesicle-like structures.

• Primary Identifier: Expr8587
• Remark: Picture: Figure 5c. sqt-1 encodes a cuticle collagen that is up-regulated about two hours before each larval molt. This gene serves as an internal control for the approximate time of each molt. This expression pattern was similar to that of sqt-1 mRNA, which peaked about two hours after each cuti-1 peak throughout development, except at the L4 to adult molt where both mRNAs appear to peak simultaneously.
• Pattern: The expression of cuti-1 was found to rise and fall throughout development, broadly peaking at 12, 20, 26 and 36 hours post-hatch, prior to each larval molt.

• Primary Identifier: Expr2010605
• 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.
