  1. The analysis showed differential enrichment of biological functions involved in regulating gene expression and other cellular processes in cell types clusters with low or high proportion of highly expressed genes. Minimum Enrichment Score threshold was set to 0.75. Clusters implicated in the same higher order biological process were manually merged (e.g., metabolic processes of nucleobase, alkaloid, oxidoreduction coenzyme, cellular amide and membrane lipid, were merged under Cellular Metabolism category post hoc) and the averages of their enrichment scores are shown.
