Table 2 Gene expression and protein abundance. Genes/proteins involved in the significantly (P < 0.05) enriched pathways comparing the expression levels between slow (SG) to fast (FG) growing chickens (n = 5)

From: Alanine-specific appetite in slow growing chickens is associated with impaired glucose transport and TCA cycle

  2. aNormalized gene expression refers to FPKM (Fragments Per Kilobase of transcript per Million mapped reads) calculated using RNA-seq data in Limma. Baysian model with t-statistics moderated across genes were used to identify significant differences. RNA-seq data were based on 2 × 125 bp Paired-End Dual indexed reads and average of ~ 27 million sequence reads per sample
  3. bNormalized protein abundance refers to the peak area (intensity × retention time) of the proteins’ spectra. Peak areas were obtained using SWATH (Sequential Window Acquisition of All Theoretical Mass Spectra) analyses of LC-MS/MS data
