  1. Gene entries from the epididymis UniGene library (as of September, 2004) were classified into known and unknown genes. Each category was further classified into epididymis-specific, epididymis-predominant, and widely-expressed genes. Single ESTs were counted and excluded in the present study. All of the known and unknown genes are listed in Additional data files 1 and 2, respectively.
