  1. aelim and weight pruning methods were used to assess the enrichment of GO terms by considering the structure of the gene ontology. The elim pruning eliminated the genes mapped to a significant GO term from more general (higher level) GO terms, while the weight pruning assigned weight to each gene annotated to a GO term based on the scores of neighboring GO terms. The p-value GO terms was corrected for multiple comparisons using FDR and Bonferroni correction.
