WormMine: Gene WBGene00006769

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00006769
• Gene Name: unc-33
• Sequence Name: Y37E11C.1
• Brief Description: unc-33 encodes a conserved member of the CRMP/TOAD/Ulip/DRP family of proteins that includes mammalian CRMP-2 (Collapsin response mediator protein-2), which is essential for axon guidance and axonogenesis; in C. elegans, unc-33 activity is required for several biological processes including outgrowth and guidance of sensory, motor, and interneurons, sex myoblast migration, normal body movement and morphology, egg laying, and defecation; by homology to CRMP-2, UNC-33 is predicted to bind tubulin heterodimers and promote microtubule assembly, thereby regulating the extension and branching of cellular projections during neuronal polarization; UNC-33 is reportedly expressed exclusively in axonal processes from after early embryogenesis through larval and adult stages.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Enables filamin binding activity; protein heterodimerization activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including axon guidance; establishment or maintenance of cytoskeleton polarity; and regulation of locomotion. Located in neuron projection. Expressed in amphid socket cell; neuroblasts; neurons; pharyngeal cell; and somatic nervous system. Is an ortholog of human DPYSL2 (dihydropyrimidinase like 2).

	Transcripts that showed significantly increased expression in L1 neural cells comparing to in adult neural cells.	DESeq2 (v1.18.1) fold change > 2, P-adj<0.05, using BenjaminiHochberg correction.	WBPaper00060811:L1_vs_adult_upregulated_neural
	Transcripts expressed in neuronal cells, by analyzingfluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) neurons.	DESeq. False discovry rate (FDR) < 0.1.	WBPaper00048988:neuron_expressed
	Genes significantly enriched (> 2x, FDR < 5%) in a particular cell-type versus a reference sample of all cells at the same stage.	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.

	Coexpression clique No. 60, 176662_at-Y53F4B.16, 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.

11 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr4828
• Remark: Picture: Fig. 6A Reporter gene fusion type not specified.
• Pattern: The unc-33::gfp reporter is expressed in dividing neuroblasts at pre-comma embryonic stages. unc-33::gfp expression can be observed outside the nervous system in two amphid socket cells and weakly in non-neuronal pharyngeal cells.

• Primary Identifier: Marker119
• Pattern: Marker for all neurons.

• Primary Identifier: Expr2036002
• 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. Interactive visualizations are available as a web app (https://cello.shinyapps.io/celegans/) and can also be installed as an R package (https://github.com/qinzhu/VisCello.celegans).

• Primary Identifier: Expr1032842
