Kidney 26 25 25 19
Liver 36 37 29 3 2

A pathway is considered expressed if 85% of the pathway genes are above the chosen tissue confidence cutoff. The analysis was done on the 203 human KEGG pathways and the same number of transferred pathways for mouse, rat and pig using the experimental confidence scores from TISSUES for the seven tissues with support by at least two experimental datasets. The highest number of pathways for each organism (each column) is indicated by a bold font.
