Trapcluster genes verified by RT-PCR

The results of RT-PCR verifications on ES-cell RNA of 50 novel transcripts predicted to exist on the basis of gene trap sequence tags. Genes that were confirmed (i.e., for which at least a pair of exons could be detected in ES-cell RNA) are separated from those that were not confirmed. Moreover, transcripts were separated into those that were found nested within known genes, the anti-sense of known genes, as well other stand-alone transcripts shown as “novel.” For the latter, the TCLG identifier and chromosomal location are given; for the former, the TCLG identifier is given alongside the name of the gene within which the transcript is nested, or the gene that is found in anti-sense orientation. For more details, see Supplemental Table S7.
