WormMine: Gene WBGene00001077

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00001077
• Gene Name: dpy-18
• Sequence Name: Y47D3B.10
• Brief Description: dpy-18 encodes a catalytic alpha subunit of collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase (P4H) orthologous to human P4H alpha (I) isoform (OMIM: 176710), an alpha subunit of prolyl-4-hydroxylase which is a procollagen modifying enzyme required for exoskeleton formation, morphogenesis and maintenance of body shape; dpy-18 has a critical role in hydroxylation of cuticle collagens during collagen synthesis; dpy-18, in complex with phy-2, is essential for the survival of the C. elegans; dpy-18 mutations alone result in a mild dumpy phenotype; expressed dpy-18 and ten-1 act in parallel influencing the connection between epidermis and muscle during embryonic development; deletion of dpy-18 causes aggregation of collagen IV in body wall muscles in elongated embryos and triggers the loss of tissue integrity in ten-1 mutants; dpy-18 is expressed throughout the hypodermis, head and posterior neurons.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Enables procollagen-proline 4-dioxygenase activity. Involved in several processes, including cuticle development involved in collagen and cuticulin-based cuticle molting cycle; embryo development; and embryonic body morphogenesis. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Expressed in hypodermis; muscle cell; neurons; and pharynx. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in myopia. Is an ortholog of human P4HA1 (prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit alpha 1) and P4HA2 (prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit alpha 2).

	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

Genes were tested for differential expression between each mutant strain and wild-type using edgeRs glm method. Briefly, negative binomial models were fitted and dispersion estimates obtained. These were then used to calculate average levels of change between conditions and determine differential expression, using the generalized linear model likelihood ratio test. For each comparison, genes with less than 5 CPM were filtered and those with at least 50% change and False Discovery Rate (FDR) of 1% or less were considered differentially expressed.

	Expression Pattern Group C, enriched for genes involved in metabolic processes.	The significance (P 0.0001) of the relative age (time) was used to determine if a gene was differentially expressed between the three age (time) groups. The effect of this factor explaining gene expression differences was used to determine if the expression went up or down during the two age/time periods (t1 - t2 and t2 -t3). Authors used a permutation approach to determine the thresholds for the different mapping strategies. For each of the used models for eQTL mapping, authors used 23,000 permutations. For each permutation, authors randomly picked a spot; each spot could only be picked once. The gene expression and relative lifespan values were than randomly distributed over the RILs (and time points) and used for mapping. In this way, authors obtained a threshold for each of the explaining factors. For the single time points, authors used a FDR of 0.01 to adjust for multiple testing. The genome-wide threshold for this FDR is -log10 P = 3.8 for each of the three time points. For the combined models (t1 to t2 and t2 to t3), authors used a genome-wide threshold of -log10 P = 4, which resembles an FDR of 0.006, 0.001, and 0.006 for marker, age, and the interaction between marker and age, respectively. To determine the threshold for the single gene examples, authors used 1000 permutations as in the genome-wide threshold. The difference is that they use the gene under study in all of the permutations. The P-values for the gene specific thresholds were determined at FDR = 0.05.	WBPaper00036286:Pattern_C

	Proteins that showed significantly decreased expression after 1-day-old wild type adults were exposed to cisplatin (300ug per mL) for 6 hours.

	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.

10 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr1030685
• Pattern: Tiling arrays expression graphs

• Primary Identifier: Expr12145
• Pattern: Fluorescence in the transcriptional dpy-18prom::GFP reporter strain was first detected at the bean stage of embryogenesis in hypodermis and muscle, and gfp continued to be expressed in these tissues, as well as in motor neurons and in other unidentified neurons, during embryonic development. Postembryonically, dpy-18prom::GFP is expressed in a similar pattern and is more expansive than observed previously (Hill et al., 2000). In young larvae, dpy-18prom::gfp is expressed in the hypodermis, in muscle, in a few unidentified neurons in the head and tail, and in motor neurons.

• Primary Identifier: Expr1085
• Pattern: GFP expression was first observed at the 3-fold embryonic stage and was continuously expressed thereafter throughout embryonic and postembryonic development and into adulthood. The GFP signal was observed in the hypodermis, two pairs of bilaterally symmetrical head neurons that extend processes to the tip of the pharynx, and one posteriorly located neuron that sends a process along the ventral nerve cord to the head.

• Primary Identifier: Expr1928
• Remark: Expression pattern for phy-1, phy-2, pdi-2 are identical, see Expr1929, Expr1930. Reporter gene fusion type not specified.
• Pattern: Exclusively expressed in the hypodermal cells that synthesize cuticle collagens.

• Primary Identifier: Expr1931
• Remark: Expression pattern for phy-1, phy-2, pdi-2 are identical, see Expr1932, Expr1933. No detailed description on expression pattern at other life stages.
