WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00000845 Gene Name  cup-4
Sequence Name  ? C02C2.3 Brief Description  cup-4 encodes a non-alpha ligand-gated ion channel with similarity to the nicotinic acetylcholine receptors; cup-4 is required cell autonomously for efficient fluid endocytosis in coelomocytes; cup-4 mutant animals display reduced levels of plasma membrane phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, suggesting that CUP-4 may regulate endocytosis via regulation of phospholipase C activity; in addition, cup-4 mutants display disorganized clathrin and RME-1 at the coelomocyte plasma membrane; CUP-4::GFP is expressed in coelomocytes where it localizes to the cytoplasm, primarily to cytoplasmic vesicles.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Predicted to enable neurotransmitter receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including determination of adult lifespan; positive regulation of egg-laying behavior; and response to caloric restriction. Located in cytoplasmic vesicle membrane.
Biotype  SO:0001217 Genetic Position  III :-0.533135 ±0.003482

  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.

    Expr3280   In living worms, CUP-4::GFP localizes primarily to vesicles scattered around the cytoplasm. While some of the CUP-4::GFP localized around the nucleus, presumably in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane, the general pattern of localization of CUP-4::GFP was quite distinct from that of cytochrome b5, a marker for smooth ER, and from TRAM, a marker for the rough ER. To ascertain whether CUP-4 exits the ER, the transgene expressing CUP-4::GFP was crossed into a cup-5(ar465) background in which endocytosed material is not degraded and accumulates in large vacuoles. CUP-4::GFP, but neither of the ER markers, localized to the membrane of the large vacuoles. These results are consistent with CUP-4::GFP localizing at steady state to the Golgi apparatus or to the plasma membrane/endosomes. The residual ER accumulation of CUP-4::GFP in the cup-4(+) background is eliminated in a cup-4(ok837) background, suggesting that slight overexpression increases retention in the ER.
