Fig. 3: Expression of candidate genes in mouse lens.
From: A large multiethnic GWAS meta-analysis of cataract identifies new risk loci and sex-specific effects
Mouse orthologs of the human candidate genes in the 54 loci were examined for their lens expression in the iSyTE database. Analysis of whole lens tissue data on various platforms, microarrays (Affymetrix, Illumina) and RNA-seq indicates expression of 55 genes at different stages indicated by embryonic (E) and postnatal (P) days and ranged from early lens development (i.e., E10.5) through adulthood (i.e., P60). Note: P28 in Affymetrix represents expression data on isolated lens epithelium. The range of expression on each platform is indicated by a specific heat-map. The numbers within individual tiles indicate the level of expression in fluorescence intensity (for microarrays) and in counts per million (CPM) (for RNA-seq).
