Novel ‘housekeeping’ genes and an unusually heterogeneous distribution of transporter expression profiles in human tissues and cell lines, assessed using the Gini coefficient

2017-06-26

Abstract excerpt

We analyse two comprehensive transcriptome datasets from human tissues and human-derived cell lines in terms of the expression profiles of the SLC and ABC families of membrane transporters. The Gini index (coefficient) characterises inequalities of distributions, and is used in a novel way to describe the distribution of the expression of each transporter among the different tissues and cell lines. In many cases,...
