Abstract excerpt
The genetic make-up and physiological state of a cell or tissue in an organism interact to determine the level at which specific genes are expressed. Identifying genes differentially expressed between 2 genetic or physiological states often gives insight into the molecular mechanisms controlled by the process in question. Various methods have been devised to identify differentially expressed genes and to quantify...
