Figure 2. Deletion of the CAD risk interval affects expression of neighboring genes Cdkn2a and Cdkn2b.
a) Expression levels of Cdkn2a (INK splice variant) and Cdkn2b are significantly reduced in heart tissue of chr4Δ70kb/Δ70kb mice. In contrast, expression of the neighboring genes Mtap and Dmrta1 is not significantly altered. b) Overview of locus with locations of genes. Error bars are standard error of the mean; asterisks indicate P ≤ 0.005 (t-test, one-tailed).
