Frequency of annotated genes having defined automatically derived functional categories is shown. Total number of genes is given in parentheses. Note that one gene can have more than one annotated function. Numbers in bold indicate significant enrichment (P < 0.05 after step-down Bonferoni correction for multiple testing).
