Fig 3. Gene set enrichment analysis.

Enriched terms based on (A) “biological process”; (B) “cellular component”; and (C) “KEGG pathway” for two gene groups, genes in X₃ position and all of the genes involved in the triplets. The common terms in these two groups are shown in red. The high frequency of common terms suggest that the results of liquid association method are consistent with the biological expectation from three-way interactions, that is, the presence of switching and switched genes in the same biological pathway.
