Table 1. Genes that were identified as upregulated in the somatic mesoderm by microarray analysis.

Genes were scored as having proximal Twist or DMef2 binding sites if a prior whole genome ChIP on Chip experiment (Zinzen et al., 2009) identified a binding site within 30 kb of the gene. Whether these sites are located 5′ or 3′ to the coding region, or within intronic sequences, is noted. See Also Figure S1.
