WormBase Gene ID  ? WBGene00000013 Gene Name  abf-2
Sequence Name  ? C50F2.10 Brief Description  abf-2 encodes an antimicrobial peptide homologous to Ascaris suum antibacterial factor ASABF, and closely related to ABF-1; recombinant ABF-2 displays strong microbicidal activity against Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, as well as fungi; on account of ABF-2's antimicrobial activity, sequence similarity, and expression in the pharyngeal marginal zone, ABF-2 is thought to mediate an antimicrobial humoral response; abf-2 expression in the pharynx in response to infection requires tol-1, which encodes a conserved Toll-like receptor required for the innate immune response.
Organism  Caenorhabditis elegans Automated Description  Involved in defense response to Gram-negative bacterium and defense response to Gram-positive bacterium. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Expressed in excretory cell; marginal cell; and pharyngeal neurons.
Biotype  SO:0001217 Genetic Position  I :-1.94699 ±0.003416

  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

  Genes that showed significantly increased expression in daf-2(e1370) comparing to in N2. 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.

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.
