  1. Bold and italic fonts indicate terms that were over- or under-represented, respectively, in the differentially expressed category, based on false discovery rate (FDR)-corrected Fisher’s exact tests. GO categories: F = function, P = process, C = cellular component.
  2. *Based on number of annotated genes in SD: differentially expressed – 67; non-changing – 6980.
  3. #Based on number of annotated genes in SC: differentially expressed – 234; non-changing – 7289.
