WormMine: Gene WBGene00002199

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00002199
• Gene Name: kin-15
• Sequence Name: M176.6
• Brief Description: kin-15 encodes a novel receptor protein tyrosine kinase; like kin-16, with which it is cotranscribed, kin-15 encodes a protein that displays some unusual features, including a very small extracellular domain (50 amino acids) that lacks a cysteine-rich region typical of ligand-binding domains of known receptor tyrosine kinases, an unusual amino acid substitution in the subdomain VI motif, and a lack of typical autophosphorylation sites in the kinase insert and C-terminal domains; a kin-15 reporter is first detected in young L1 larvae in the hyp7 syncytium; later expression is detected in ventral and lateral cells that fuse with hyp7 as well as in the more anterior hyp6 syncytium late in development; this distinct expression pattern suggests that kin-15 may also play a role in development of the hypodermal syncytium and perhaps be involved in cell-cell interactions regulating postembryonic cell fusions.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Predicted to enable transmembrane receptor protein tyrosine kinase activity. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. Predicted to be part of receptor complex. Expressed in hyp6 and hyp7 syncytium.
• Biotype: SO:0001217

	TGF- Dauer pathway adult transcriptional targets. Results obtained by comparing the microarray results of the dauer-constitutive mutants daf-7(e1372), daf-7(m62), and daf-1(m40) with dauer-defective mutants daf-3(mgDf90), daf-5(e1386), and daf-7(e1372);daf-3(mgDf90) double mutants at the permissive temperature, 20C, on the first day of adulthood.

	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.
