WormMine: Gene WBGene00044630

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00044630
• Gene Name: bus-17
• Sequence Name: ZK678.8
• Brief Description: bus-17 encodes a putative GT13 glycosyltransferase whose homologs include human B3GALT2 and C. elegans BRE-5; BUS-17 is required for bacterial infection, as well as for cuticle integrity, long-term survival, and traction during movement; specifically, bus-17 is needed both for colonization by Microbacterium nematophilum (and the tail-swelling response to M. nematophilum infection) and for attachment of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis biofilms; bus-17 is also needed for normal cuticle antigens; BUS-17 is predicted to have an N-terminal signal sequence and a moderately conserved active site; bus-17 and bus-3 function together in vivo, since bus-17(e2695)/+ sometimes shows nonallelic noncomplementation with bus-3(e2696)/+; bus-17 males are sometimes wild-type if their fathers were wild-type.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Predicted to enable UDP-glycosyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in protein O-linked glycosylation. Predicted to be located in Golgi membrane. Is an ortholog of human B3GALT1 (beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase 1).
• Biotype: SO:0001217
• Genetic Position: X :22.9602 ±0.001056

	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.

	WT-Pico Pan-neural Depleted Genes, with genes found multiple times in a single dataset removed (without dups).	To identify differentially expressed transcripts, normalized intensity values from the pan-neural data sets were compared to a reference (from all larval cells) using Significance Analysis of Microarray software (SAM). A two class unpaired analysis of the data was performed to identify neuron-enriched genes. Pan-neural enriched transcripts in the IVT and WT-Pico-derived data set were defined as 1.5X elevated vs the reference at a False Discovery Rate (FDR) = 3%.
