Heat map demonstrating gene silencing efficacy across all experiments. Columns include the silenced genes and the rows depict the expression for each gene (also ranked according to the order of the columns). Genes and experiments are ranked so that the diagonal green line resembles the silencing efficiency of the targeted gene across all comparisons—fluctuations in the remaining area correspond to noise and off-target effects of the silencing. Green equals lower expression in the siRNA treated sample compared with control. The line is not straight as some genes were silenced in multiple experiments and some experiment contained multiple genes.
