Other genes were either not on the expression array or not significantly regulated. (†) A score of > 3 was considered significant (p < 0.001). Supplementary Table 2: Representation of the distribution of the gene ontology (GO) functions of the 157 selected probes sets. The GO classifications were sorted by the enrichment score (ES) and the number of genes for specific function are indicated; the left column shows the names of different functions.
