These 55 non-translated genes are among the 10% genes with lowest PP values (listed from lowest to highest PP values). The 39 genes highlighted in bold are also found to be highly expressed according to microarray gene expression levels and their rank are shown according to the measured microarray gene expression level (from highest to lowest, low rank => highly expressed).
