WormMine: Gene WBGene00004769

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00004769
• Gene Name: sel-12
• Sequence Name: F35H12.3
• Brief Description: sel-12 encodes a transmembrane domain protein orthologous to presenilins; during gonadal, germline, and vulval development, sel-12 functions, within receiving cells, to positively regulate lin-12 and glp-1 Notch-like signaling pathways; sel-12 presenilin activity and/or levels are likely regulated by the SET/NAP protein sub-family member encoded by spr-2, as mutations in sel-12 are suppressed by mutations in spr-2; spr-2 regulation of sel-12 occurs in a hop-1 presenilin dependent manner.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Predicted to enable endopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including apical protein localization; egg-laying behavior; and regulation of signal transduction. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Used to study Alzheimer's disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Alzheimer's disease 3; Alzheimer's disease 4; Pick's disease; dilated cardiomyopathy (multiple); and hidradenitis suppurativa. Is an ortholog of human PSEN1 (presenilin 1) and PSEN2 (presenilin 2).

	Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (L2 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.
