Table 3.

Gene Ontology—Biological Process classification groupings overrepresented in A) Male versus female subjects, and B) Female, Over versus Under 55 years old (P ≤ 0.01, group size ≥ 5). Included are raw P values, odds ratio of group overrepresentation, expected (Exp. Count) versus actual (Count) number of significant genes, and total genes (Size) in the enriched categories. Biological processes that are labeled as “sub-processes” of a Functional Category are indented underneath the Category.
