WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00000199 Gene Name  arx-1
Sequence Name  ? Y71F9AL.16 Brief Description  arx-1, also called as Arp-3, encodes a subunit of the actin-related protein of the conserved Arp2/3 complex with 60% amino acid similarity to the homologous genes from human (OMIM: 604222); arx-1 is an essential gene as disruption in the expression by RNAi results in embryonic arrest due to ventral enclosure defects during morphogenesis; in Arp2/3-depleted embryos, the leading edge of the migrating epidermis lacks a normal enrichment of filamentous actin and finger-like protrusions; in migrating excretory cells, Arp2/3 is involved in longitudinal migration; WSP-1 and the Arp2/3 complex associate and function cell autonomously at cell boundaries during ventral enclosure; localization of WSP-1 is dependent on the Arp2/3 complex; expression of WSP-1 increases by the reduction of functional ARX-1.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Predicted to enable ATP binding activity and actin binding activity. Predicted to contribute to actin filament binding activity. Involved in Arp2/3 complex-mediated actin nucleation; embryonic morphogenesis; and epithelial cell migration. Located in cell leading edge and cytoplasm. Expressed in hypodermis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); glioblastoma; and opisthorchiasis. Is an ortholog of human ACTR3 (actin related protein 3).

In the pooled data set, 1453 C. elegans proteins were identified with a probability >= 0.9 according to ProteinProphet, of which 1165 proteins were identified by more than one unique peptide.

  Transcripts expressed in neuronal cells, by analyzingfluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) neurons. DESeq. False discovry rate (FDR) < 0.1. WBPaper00048988:neuron_expressed
  mRNAs that showed decreased expression in 1 cell mebryo comparing to in oocyte, according to RNAseq analysis. Gaussian error propagation. As cutoff for the up-regulated genes authors used log2 fold change > 1 and P < 0.05 and as cutoff for the down-regulated genes authors used log2 fold change < -1 and P < 0.05.

  Transcripts expressed in intestine, according to PAT-Seq analysis using Pges-1-GFP-3XFLAG mRNA tagging. Cufflinks FPKM value >=1. WBPaper00050990:intestine_expressed
  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

  Transcripts detected in body muscle nuclei according to a nuclear FACS-based strategy. Cufflinks WBPaper00065120:body-muscle-transcriptome
  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.
