WormMine: Gene WBGene00003681

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00003681
• Gene Name: nhr-91
• Sequence Name: Y15E3A.1
• Brief Description: nhr-91 encodes a conserved nuclear receptor that is orthologous to members of the NR6 subfamily of nuclear receptors that includes Drosophila HR4 and human germ cell nuclear factor (GCNF, OMIM:600281, human and mouse GCNF are expressed primarily in the testis); by homology, NHR-91 is predicted to function as a transcription factor that may activate or repress transcription in response to a hormonal signal; however, as loss of nhr-91 activity via RNAi does not result in any obvious abnormalities, the precise role of NHR-91 in C. elegans development and/or behavior is not yet known; nhr-91 is expressed in anterior neurons, seam cells, excretory cells, the spermatheca, and the developing vulva.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity and nuclear receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in cell differentiation and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Expressed in anterior ganglion; excretory cell; seam cell; spermatheca; and vulva. Is an ortholog of human NR6A1 (nuclear receptor subfamily 6 group A member 1).

	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (L3/L4 all cell 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.
