WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00004989 Gene Name  spp-4
Sequence Name  ? T08A9.8 Brief Description  spp-4 encodes an antimicrobial peptide that belongs to the SPP-protein family, called caenopores, with structural similarity to saposin-like proteins (SAPLIPs), the amoebapores and the mammalian NK-lysin and granulysin; caenopores are part of the worm's innate immune system and interact with and eliminate bacteria via membrane pore-forming activity; C. elegans has at least 33 putative SPP proteins; phylogenetic analysis indicates that spp-4 is most similar to spp-2, spp-5 and spp-6.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Enriched in hypodermis; intestine; male-specific anatomical entity; muscle cell; and neurons based on tiling array; RNA-seq; single-cell RNA-seq; and microarray studies. Is affected by several genes including cyc-1; nuo-6; and cua-1 based on microarray; RNA-seq; and proteomic studies. Is affected by twenty-seven chemicals including Heme; methylmercuric chloride; and bisphenol S based on microarray and RNA-seq studies. Is predicted to encode a protein with the following domains: Saposin B type, region 2; Saposin-like type B, region 2; Saposin-like; Saposin B type domain; and Phosphorylation site.

All genes with a false discovery rate of <= 5% (q <= 0.05) (Storey and Tibshirani, 2003) and a mean fold-change ratio of >= 1.5 were selected for further analysis.

  Genes with expression level regulated by genotype (N2 vs CB4856) and age at old adults stage (214 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_aging

  Expression Pattern Group C, enriched for genes involved in metabolic processes. The significance (P 0.0001) of the relative age (time) was used to determine if a gene was differentially expressed between the three age (time) groups. The effect of this factor explaining gene expression differences was used to determine if the expression went up or down during the two age/time periods (t1 - t2 and t2 -t3). Authors used a permutation approach to determine the thresholds for the different mapping strategies. For each of the used models for eQTL mapping, authors used 23,000 permutations. For each permutation, authors randomly picked a spot; each spot could only be picked once. The gene expression and relative lifespan values were than randomly distributed over the RILs (and time points) and used for mapping. In this way, authors obtained a threshold for each of the explaining factors. For the single time points, authors used a FDR of 0.01 to adjust for multiple testing. The genome-wide threshold for this FDR is -log10 P = 3.8 for each of the three time points. For the combined models (t1 to t2 and t2 to t3), authors used a genome-wide threshold of -log10 P = 4, which resembles an FDR of 0.006, 0.001, and 0.006 for marker, age, and the interaction between marker and age, respectively. To determine the threshold for the single gene examples, authors used 1000 permutations as in the genome-wide threshold. The difference is that they use the gene under study in all of the permutations. The P-values for the gene specific thresholds were determined at FDR = 0.05. WBPaper00036286:Pattern_C
