WormMine: Gene WBGene00016038

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00016038
• Gene Name: cst-2
• Sequence Name: C24A8.4
• Brief Description: cst-2 encodes a protein kinase that is the C. elegans ortholog of the MST (mammalian Ste20-like) kinases and Drosophila Hippo; CST-2 appears to play a role in the responses to oxidative stress and determination of adult lifespan; in regulating stress response and lifespan, CST-2 functions upstream of the DAF-16/FOXO transcription factor; CST-2 physically interacts with RSF-1, the C. elegans homolog of the Ras-association domain family protein 1.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Predicted to enable protein serine/threonine kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in intracellular signal transduction and regulation of MAPK cascade. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Expressed in AQR and PQR. Is an ortholog of human STK3 (serine/threonine kinase 3).

	Genes with expression level regulated by genotype (N2 vs CB4856) 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_regulated_developing

5 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr13232
• Pattern: After Q.a cell division, CST-2 was evenly distributed within the cell body in Q.ap.

• Primary Identifier: Expr2010563
• 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).
