Regulated By Treatment Description Algorithm Primary Identifier
  Transcripts expressed in neuronal cells, by analyzingfluorescence-activated cell sorted (FACS) neurons. DESeq. False discovry rate (FDR) < 0.1. WBPaper00048988:neuron_expressed
  Single-cell RNA-Seq cell group 71_0 expressed in neuron. scVI 0.6.0 WBPaper00065841:71_0
  Transcripts of coding genes that showed significantly decreased expression in muscle. DESeq2 (version 1.24.0). Transcripts with a false-discovery rate adjusted p-value less than 0.05 were considered significantly differentially expressed. WBPaper00062325:muscle_depleted_coding-RNA
  Genes that showed expression levels higher than the corresponding reference sample (embryonic 24hr reference). 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.

  Neuronally enriched transcripts according to a comparison of neuronal nuclei IP samples to total nuclei using isolation of nuclei from tagged specific cell types (INTACT) technology. DESEQ2, fold change > 2 and FDR < 0.01. WBPaper00062103:neuron_enriched

  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

Promoter::GFP fusion constructs of variable lengths were generated using PCR amplification followed by subsequent cloning into expression vectors.   Expr10136 Expressed in ciliated sensory neurons of the amphids. The 60 C. elegans CSNs present in an adult hermaphrodite worm were divided into 5 subgroups or anatomical regions including, neurons that reside in the amphids (region 1 = 24 CSNs: AWAL/R, AWBL/R, AWCL/R, AFDL/R, ASEL/R, ADFL/R, ASGL/R, ASHL/R, ASIL/R, ASJLR, ASKL/R, ADLL/R) or in the tail (region 2 = 5 CSNs: PHAL/R, PHBL/R, PQR), neurons surrounding the anterior bulb (region 3 = 24 CSNs: BAGL/ R, CEPVL/R, CEPDL/R, IL1L/R, IL2L/R, IL1VL/R, IL2VL/R, IL1DL/R, IL2DL/R, OLLL/R, OLQVL/R, OLQDL/R) or the posterior bulb (region 4 = 5 CSNs: ADEL/R, FLPL/R, AQR) of the pharynx, and neurons in the midbody region of the worm (region 5=2 CSNs: PDEL/R). xbx-4 was detected in region 1.

    Expr1024306 Developmental gene expression time-course. Raw data can be downloaded from ftp://caltech.wormbase.org/pub/wormbase/datasets-published/levin2012  
    Expr16029 A rescuing XBX-4::GFP protein expressed under the xbx-4 promoter is restricted to ciliated sensory neurons in the head and tail as assessed via co-expression with a ciliated neuron-specific marker and colocalization with dye-filling neurons. Although this transgene was injected at low concentrations, we acknowledge that the expression pattern of this fusion gene may not fully reflect the endogenous expression pattern.  
    Expr16030   XBX-4::GFP expressed specifically in AWA showed diffuse localization throughout the soma and processes and was also present in the main proximal ciliary stalk with weaker expression in the distal ciliary branches, similar to the localization pattern of DYF-18::GFP in AWA.
