Their microbial exposures varied and
gene expression patterns varied, but the parts of the genome that were open at each location in the gut remained consistent, Crawford said.
Not exact matches
Because
genes on the Y chromosome often
vary slightly in sequence — and even function — from the corresponding
genes on the X, males could have slightly different
patterns of
gene expression throughout the body compared with females, due to not only their hormone levels, but also their entire Y chromosome.
To identify transcriptional
patterns that correlate with body mass, we used oligonucleotide microarrays to catalogue
gene expression levels in the parametrial or epididymal adipose tissue from two dozen mice whose body mass and adiposity
varied due to diet, sex, and mutations in
genes affecting energy homeostasis.
«We showed that these
genes have unique
expression patterns in different brain regions at
varying times during brain development.
The research also showed that
gene expression patterns of individual tumors
varied considerably, and could exceed the variation observed between different cancer types.
IMPRINTOME STOP SIGNS:
Gene expression patterns for 42 imprinted
genes (y axis)
vary across diverse tissues (x axis), with redder boxes denoting stronger skewing towards just one allele.
