Electronic Northern Analysis of Genes and Modeling of Gene Networks Underlying Bovine Milk Fat Production

Table 2

Summary of results of transcript abundance studies. Of the 45 genes involved, 23 genes (S. numbers “23–45”) did not have complete UniGene ESTProfile and were precluded from further studies. Of the 22 genes studied (S. numbers “1–22”), 13 genes (in bold) appeared to be overexpressed in mammary tissue. Of these, six genes (marked with an asterisk) further showed preferential expression in adult-derived tissues. TPM: transcripts per million; ma: mammary; s: skin; mu: muscle.
