WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00003039 Gene Name  mir-48
Sequence Name  ? F56A12.3 Brief Description  mir-48 encodes a microRNA (miRNA); mir-48 was identified in screens for new heterochronic loci required for the proper temporal control of specific postembryonic cell divisions; mutations in mir-48 result in precocious terminal differentiation of hypodermal seam cells and secretion of adult cuticle one stage too early.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Involved in miRNA-mediated gene silencing by inhibition of translation and positive regulation of development, heterochronic. Expressed in P5.p hermaphrodite; P7.p hermaphrodite; RID; and seam cell. Used to study Parkinson's disease.
Biotype  SO:0001265 Genetic Position  V :6.27549 ±0.003412

  Neuronally enriched transcripts according to a comparison of neuronal nuclei IP samples to total nuclei using isolation of nuclei from tagged specific cell types (INTACT) technology. DESEQ2, fold change > 2 and FDR < 0.01. WBPaper00062103:neuron_enriched
  Transcripts that showed significantly increased expression in ilc-17.1(syb5296) comparing to in N2 animals at L4 larva stage. DESeq2, fold change > 2, FDR < 0.05. WBPaper00066594:ilc-17.1(syb5296)_upregulated
  Potental DAF-12 target genes identified by ChIP-chip analysis performed on strain ALF4 [daf-12 Affymetrix TAS software that computed for each probe estimates of fold enrichment (in linear scale) over hybridization with input DNA. At the same time, TAS calculated for each probe a p-value by applying a Wilcoxon signed rank test. A threshold of 2.5 was selected, which corresponds to probe intensities approximately 2.5 times stronger on the ChIP array than on the Input array. Additional TAS threshold parameters were MinRun=180 bp, MaxGap=300 bp. TAS analysis showed that the selected threshold of 2.5 corresponds approximately to a p-value of 0.01.

11 Expression Patterns

Remark Reporter Gene Primary Identifier Pattern Subcellular Localization
Reporter gene fusion type not specified. mir-48(del)::gfp gave a similar pattern.   Expr3769 gfp expression was detected in the lateral hypodermal seam and the vulva beginning during the L4 stage, when driven by a wild-type fragment extending 1.0 kb upstream from the miR-48 coding sequence (mir-48::gfp). A single head neuron, RID, also consistently expressed gfp, but did so in a nontemporally regulated fashion and served as an internal control.  
    Expr8455 Expressed from L1 to adulthood. Expression seen in vulval cells, seam cells, head and tail neurons.  
Picture: Fig 2A.   Expr8401 Northern blot temporal expression: L1 to adult.  
    Expr12250 Animals carrying the mir-48::gfp construct showed temporal expression in the hypodermal seam cells two stages earlier than its let-7 homologues at the L2 stage. mir-48 was not detected in the gonad at any stage. specific expression of mir-48 was observed in the P5.p and P7.p cells that will assume 2 vulval cell fates. It is interesting to note that expression of mir-237, mir-84, and mir-48 was absent in the P6.p cell during the mid- to late L3 stage, and expression of mir-237 and mir-84 but not mir-48 was present in the anchor cell.  
    Expr3740 Previous study reported that the let-7 family members, miR-84, miR-48, and miR-241, were expressed in a similar manner as the let-7 RNA, which was first detected during the L3 stage. However, this paper reveal that miR-241 and miR-48 both appeared one stage earlier than let-7 at eL2 with robust expression by L3. miR-84 appeared at low levels in the early L1 stage, was upregulated to an intermediate level in mid-L2, and had a high level of expression in early L4.  
Figure S4.   Expr12023 pri-mir-48 miRNA transcript levels oscillate during wild-type larval development, peaking once per larval stage.  
    Expr13378 In WT animals, miR-48, miR-241, and miR-237 miRNAs were expressed at very low levels during the L1, when LIN-14 is normally expressed, and increased in abundance 20- to 30-fold by the L3 when LIN-14 is down-regulated.  
Previous studies did not detect the four let-7 family members until the L3 stage, but earlier expression of all four microRNAs was detected by enhancing the sensitivity of detection.   Expr3772 When normalized to U6 expression, miR-48 reached half-maximal expression at about the L3 stage.  
    Expr2522 No signal detected in embryos, L1 and L2 larva. Intense signals detected in L3, L4 larva, adults, and glp-4(bn2) adults.
