WormMine: Gene WBGene00016997

• WormBase Gene ID: WBGene00016997
• Gene Name: cebp-1
• Sequence Name: D1005.3
• Brief Description: cebp-1 encodes a bZip domain-containing protein that is a member of the CCAAT/enhancer-binding proteins (C/EBP) subfamily of bZip proteins; in C. elegans, CEBP-1 functions together with a DLK-1 signaling pathway to effect axon regeneration after laser axotomy in adult neurons; cebp-1 protein and mRNA are located in synapses and axons, and translation of axonal cebp-1 mRNA is upregulated via the DLK-1 signaling pathway in response to axonal injury.
• Organism: Caenorhabditis elegans
• Automated Description: Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity; and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including defense response to bacterium; regulation of extent of cell growth; and regulation of presynapse assembly. Located in cytoplasm; nucleus; and synapse. Part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Expressed in several structures, including intestine; muscle cell; neurons; pharynx; and somatic cell.

	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

10 Expression Patterns

• Primary Identifier: Expr2009829
• 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).
