WormMine: Gene WBGene00001555

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00001555
• Gene Name: gcy-35
• Sequence Name: T04D3.4
• Brief Description: gcy-35 encodes a soluble guanylyl cyclase; GCY-35 activity is required for regulation of aggregation, aerotaxis, aerokinesis, gustatory plasticity, and innate immunity; GCY-35 activity is also required in the URX sensory neurons to sense increases in O2 levels and effect corresponding behavioral changes; gcy-35::gfp reporter fusions are expressed in a number of neurons, including the AQR, PQR, and URX sensory neurons, the SDQL/R and BDU interneurons, the AVM and PVM mechanosensory neurons, the cholinergic ALN and PLN neurons, the excretory cell, and in pharyngeal and body wall muscles; gcy-35 expression in the URX neuron is positively regulated by the AHR-1 transcription complex; the heme-binding domain of GCY-35 binds molecular oxygen as well as NO and CO.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Enables oxygen sensor activity and small molecule binding activity. Involved in aerotaxis; cGMP-mediated signaling; and response to stress. Located in dendrite and neuronal cell body. Expressed in body wall musculature and pharyngeal muscle cell. Is an ortholog of human GUCY1B2 (guanylate cyclase 1 soluble subunit beta 2 (pseudogene)).

	Transcripts that showed significantly increased expression in L1 neural cells comparing to in adult neural cells.	DESeq2 (v1.18.1) fold change > 2, P-adj<0.05, using BenjaminiHochberg correction.	WBPaper00060811:L1_vs_adult_upregulated_neural
	Transcripts expressed in neuronal cells, by analyzingfluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) neurons.	DESeq. False discovry rate (FDR) < 0.1.	WBPaper00048988:neuron_expressed
	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (embryonic 24hr 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.
