  1. Significant (at the 0.05 alpha cutoff) positive and negative gene-mercurial interactions are highlighted in bold. Numbers in cells indicate the percent change in viable cells from predicted additive effect of gene knock-down and mercurial exposure. “NA” indicates a condition that was not tested.
