Assay notes:
|
According to the corresponding author, a probe from the Mahoney atlas (cf J:91257) was used in this assay. However, there is more than 1 probe for this gene in that set, and it was not specified which was used to generate this data. It is possible MGI:3505953 was used to obtain these data.
