Gene :

WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00006449 Gene Name  alg-4
Sequence Name  ? ZK757.3 Brief Description  alg-4 encodes an Argonaute (AGO) protein that is a member of the AGO clade of Argonaute small RNA-binding proteins; together with its paralog, alg-3, alg-4 is required for normal brood sizes at elevated temperatures, specifically for the process of spermiogenesis in which spermatids are converted to mobile ameboid sperm; alg-3/4 is also required for accumulation of male germline-specific 26G-RNAs, suggesting that alg-3/4 mediate thermotolerant fertility via a 26G-RNA-mediated pathway.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Predicted to enable RNA endonuclease activity and single-stranded RNA binding activity. Involved in spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in P granule and nucleus. Predicted to be part of RISC complex.
Biotype  SO:0001217 Genetic Position  III :1.14143 ±0.003871

For RNA-seq and tiling arrays, log2 fold changes between gene expression values of infected versus uninfected nematodes were calculated. For log2 fold changes > 0.00001 the values > 81.25th percentile were defined as up-regulated and for log2 fold changes < -0.00001 the values < 18.75th percentile were defined as down-regulated.

  Coexpression clique No. 203, sre-33-ZK1025.1_8337, on the genome-wide coexpression clique map for the nematode GPL200 platform. All available microarray datasets for the GPL200 platform (Affymetrix C. elegans Genome Array) were obtained from the GEO repository. This included 2243 individual microarray experiments. These were normalized against each other with the software RMAexpress (Bolstad, 2014). Based on these normalized values, Pearsons correlation coefficients were obtained for each probe-probe pair of the 22,620 probes represented on this array type. The resulting list of correlation coefficients was then ranked to generate the ranked coexpression database with information on each probe represented on the GPL200 platform.

  Genes with expression level regulated by genotype (N2 vs CB4856) and age at L3 larva and Late reproduction stage (96 hours at 24 centigrade). For model 2, authors used 100 permutations to estimate the FDR threshold. Per permutation, genotypes and ages were independently randomly distributed, keeping the among-gene structure intact. Then for each spot (23,232) on the array, model 2 was tested. 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. For the physiological age effect, authors used a log10 P-value = 8 in developing worms (0.012 FDR) and -log10 P-value = 6 (0.032 FDR). WBPaper00040858:eQTL_age_regulated_developing

  mRNAs that showed increased expression in P-granule RNAi animales (simultaneously targeting pgl-1, pgl-3, glh-1 and glh-4) comparing to in control RNAi animals. Set 1 transcripts were defined as P-value < 0.05 and fold change > 2. DESeq was used. Fold change between the average of the four control replicates and the average of the four test replicates was used to calculate the significance using a negative binomial distribution. An adjusted P-value was calculated using the Benjamini-Hochberg method for multiple testing correction. WBPaper00046805:P-granule-RNAi_upregulated_Set1
  Genes that showed significantly increased expression in daf-2(e1370);hel-1(gk148684) comparing to in hel-1(gk148684) To identify DEGs, Students t test and the log2 median ratio test were performed to compute t values and median ratios for all the annotated genes. The adjusted P values from each test were computed using an empirical distribution of the null hypothesis, which was obtained from random permutations of the samples. Finally, the adjusted P values from the individual tests were combined to compute the overall P values using Stouffers method , and genes with overall P < 0.05 and fold change > 1.5 were selected as DEGs.

  Genes that showed increased expression after nicotic acid (NA) treatment. Raw counts for the genes were analyzed using the R Statistical Computing Environment and the Bioconductor packages DESeq and edgeR. Both packages provide statistical routines for determining differential expression in digital gene expression data using a model based on the negative binomial distribution. The resulting p-values were adjusted using the Benjamini and Hochberg's approach for controlling the false discovery rate (FDR). If both FDR values (by DESeq and edgeR) were smaller than p = 0.05, genes were assigned as differentially expressed. WBPaper00044260:nicotinc-acid_upregulated
