  1. Genes are grouped by functional categories. Gene IDs with asterisks and/or bold are statistically significant (see Methods). Fold change values in bold were obtained by comparing the normalized mean signal intensities of all three independent experiments using the Spotfire analysis program. Immediately following these values are the fold change values for each individual experiment (experiment 1, experiment 2 and experiment 3, respectively).
