WormMine: Gene WBGene00003097

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00003097
• Gene Name: lys-8
• Sequence Name: C17G10.5
• Brief Description: lys-8 encodes a putative lysozyme required for normal longevity,probably because it prevents killing of C. elegans by bacteria infectingits gut; LYS-8 is expressed in intestine up to the terminal bulb of thepharynx, as well as in g1 and g2 pharyngeal gland cells; LYS-8expression is induced by infection with Serratia marcescens, Pseudomonasaeruginosa, or (weakly) by Microbacterium nematophilum; LYS-8 expressionis promoted by DBL-1, TIR-1 and NSY-1; lys-8 transcripts are increasedby both DBL-1 and SMA-2 (though not strongly affected by LON-2), perhapsreflecting a general role of the DBL-1 signalling pathway in activatingintestinal genes and susceptibility of dbl-1 mutants to infection; lys-8transcripts are repressed by DAF-2 (and thus presumably increased byDAF-16), and lys-8(RNAi) animals display reduced lifespan; induction ofLSY-8 by any of three different Gram-negative bacteria (E. coli, S.marcescens, or P. aeruginosa) requires DAF-16, DBL-1, and NSY-1; LSY-8and its paralogs (LYS-1 to -7 and LYS-10) are more similar to lysozymesfrom the amoeboid protozoon Entamoeba histolytica than to more familiarones from vertebrates.

	Genes with expression level regulated by genotype (N2 vs CB4856) and age at old adults stage (214 hours at 24 centigrade).	For model 2, authors used 100 permutations to estimate the FDR threshold.

The obtained P-values were used to estimate a threshold for each of the explanatory factors. Authors also used a genome-wide threshold of -log10 P-value = 2, which resembles an FDR of 0.072 and 0.060 for marker and the interaction age-marker for the developing worms and FDR of 0.050 and 0.065 for marker and age-marker for the aging worms.

• Primary Identifier: Expr2013319
• Pattern: Single cell embryonic expression. Only cell types with an expression fraction of greater 0.2 of the maximum expressed fraction are labeled (Full data can be downloaded from http://caltech.wormbase.org/pub/wormbase/datasets-published/packer2019/). The colors represent the broad cell class to which the cell type has been assigned. The size of the point is proportional to the log2 of the numbers of cells in the dataset of that cell type.
