Fold values above 2.0 were considered as up-regulated and fold values below −2.0 were considered down-regulated. Statistical Analysis The statistical significance of the data obtained for the cell

• ; osmylation; ssDNA; Introduction At the time the human genome was completed in 2001 [1][2], it was becoming clear that the relationships between genes, noncoding regions, epigenetic modifications, and the transcriptome were intertwined and led to health vs disease in complex patterns. A large effort in

• diverse organisms. We show how to gradually narrow down the number of candidate transcripts that are involved in adhesion by (1) generating a transcriptome and a differentially expressed cDNA list enriched for adhesion-related transcripts, (2) setting up a BLAST search facility, (3) perform an in situ

• expression; in situ hybridization; RNA interference; transcriptome; Introduction The capability of an organism to attach to a surface, either temporarily or permanently, is referred to as “bioadhesion”. Bioadhesion occurs in many living organisms that have designed ways to adhere to a range of surfaces [1

• from gene identification to gene function in bioadhesion. The article is divided into three main sections: firstly, we describe the generation of a transcriptome and the use of the differential transcriptome in order to attain the full complement of transcripts (we refer to as bioinformatically
