Functional Modules Determined for Zfhx3Sci/+ SCN Expression
(A) The consensus AT motif derived from published AT sequences of genes regulated by Zfhx3 (see Experimental Procedures).
(B) A protein-protein interaction network representing the differentially expressed transcripts in Zfhx3Sci/+ SCN for all modules. Clustering analysis compartmentalized the network into modules of densely connected nodes. Positive identification of the consensus AT motif within the promoter regions of these transcripts is denoted by yellow shading. Node shape denotes the significance at different time points. Module 1 contains the greatest number of downregulated genes, AT motifs, and connectivity compared to other modules.
(C) The top nine overrepresented GO terms for genes in module 1. The number downregulated (gray) and number upregulated (blue) are listed for each term. Neuropeptide and signaling activities are among the top functional roles of the genes in this module.
