Tissue expression profiles of human KIAA0748 and its designated mouse ortholog, 5830405N20R ik. (A) EST analysis of the present work (this pair showed the strongest negative correlation of r = -0.99, which was a consequence of their divergent level of expression in the thymus). (B) and (C) microarray data for mouse (B) and human (C) [32], which also showed this discrepancy. In mouse, the expression of this gene in the thymus was more than 10 times the median value, while, in humans, it was around the median, much lower than the value of 3 times the median, the level generally used as the threshold for preferential expression. (B) and (C) were exported from GNF SymAtlas [32].
