Figure 5

GO similarity versus gene profile correlation matrix. Genes are plotted along both axes of the matrices. Genes were clustered according to the pairwise similarity between their GO biological process annotation terms for the a) human-specific coexpression network, b) mouse-specific coexpression network and c) the human-mouse conserved intersection network. Pearson correlations (r) for all pairs of tissue-specific gene expression profiles are plotted according to the color bar. The inset of each plot shows a negative control where genes are randomly plotted, i.e. without regard to functional similarity, along the axes of the matrix.
