WormMine: Gene WBGene00004346

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00004346
• Gene Name: rgs-3
• Sequence Name: C29H12.3
• Brief Description: rgs-3 encodes three proteins containing two RGS (regulator of G protein signaling) domains, the more C-terminal of which is most similar to those of the mammalian brain-specific RGS, RGS8; rgs-3 activity is required for normal G protein-mediated response to a number of sensory stimuli, including odorants, high osmolarity, and nose touch off food; genetic analyses indicate that RGS-3 functions to decrease G protein signaling in sensory neurons and increase glutamatergic synaptic transmission from sensory to interneurons; RGS-3::GFP fusion proteins are expressed exclusively in nine pairs of sensory neurons from late stages of embryogenesis through adulthood.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Involved in chemosensory behavior and sensory perception of bitter taste. Expressed in amphid neurons and phasmid neurons.
• Biotype: SO:0001217
• Genetic Position: II :-0.485213 ±0.010992
• Length (nt): 10327

	Maternal class (M): genes that are called present in at least one of the three PC6 replicates.	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_M
