WormMine: Gene WBGene00001746

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00001746
• Gene Name: gsk-3
• Sequence Name: Y18D10A.5
• Brief Description: gsk-3 encodes the C. elegans glycogen synthase kinase ortholog; during embryonic development, GSK-3 functions in the Wnt signaling pathway that restricts specification of mesendodermal tissue to the appropriate blastomere; GSK-3 also functions in a Wnt pathway that regulates anteroposterior axon guidance; GSK-3 plays a role in regulating the oocyte-to-embryo transition, by phosphorylating and negatively regulating the OMA-1 zinc finger protein, and in regulation of the oxidative stress response pathway by phosphorylating SKN-1, thereby excluding it from intestinal nuclei; GSK-3, along with MOM-5/Frizzled and APR-1/APC is also required for distal tip cell migration in the gonad and for the engulfment of apoptotic cells, indicating that the Wnt pathway signals to CED-10/Rac to regulate cytoskeletal rearrangement during different cellular processes; GSK-3 can be phosphorylated by murine ERK2 in vitro, suggesting that it is a substrate for the RTK-RAS-ERK pathway in vivo; consistent with this, GSK-3 phosphorylation is absent in mpk-1 mutant animals.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Enables protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Involved in several processes, including engulfment of apoptotic cell; left/right axis specification; and regulation of cellular component organization. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleus. Expressed in distal tip cell; seam cell; and sperm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease; bipolar disorder; carcinoma (multiple); and degenerative disc disease. Is an ortholog of human GSK3A (glycogen synthase kinase 3 alpha) and GSK3B (glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta).

	Strictly embryonic class (SE): genes that are the subset of embryonic genes that are not also classified as maternal.	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_SE
