(1)Data represent a summary of results of six independent hybridizations. In three of six replicated experiments, the labeling of HDcon and NDcon samples was reversed to compensate for any nonlinearity in the emission signal intensity response curve for each fluorophore. Genes designated as differentially expressed in the HDcon mice were those for which the normalized signal increased or decreased at least 2.0-fold and detected as significant change by SAM method.
