Identification of Reference Genes in Human Myelomonocytic Cells for Gene Expression Studies in Altered Gravity

Figure 3

Coefficient of variation calculation for the potential reference genes. This bar chart displays the coefficient of variation (CV) in % of the 20 potential reference genes across the gravity conditions for the 19th DLR PFC (H/W, 1 g, 1.8 g, μg) and TEXUS-49 (H/W, BL, μg). A lower value corresponds to higher stability in gene expression. (a) 19th DLR PFC: All calculated CV values are below the threshold of 50%. (b) TEXUS-49: all CV values are below 50%, but in total more genes show higher coefficients of variation.
