Many of the genes that were found differentially expressed during spaceflight culture of S. typhimurium in M9 media in this work were also consistent with those reported in LB culture for this same organism under identical conditions [2].
Carbohydrate metabolism-related transcripts with homologies to β-AMYLASE genes, which are described as contributing to osmoprotection during desiccation [ 74], were also found differentially expressed during acorn development.
In a microarray profiling Hakai was found differentially expressed during erythroid differentiation of murine erythroleukemia cells, suggesting the possibility of considering Hakai as a marker for erythropoiesis [ 95].
For the SD vs. LD comparison, 1686 transcripts were found differentially expressed during day (Zt1) while 3053 transcripts were differentially expressed during night (Zt13 or Zt17, respectively), and 1313 differentially expressed transcripts were shared between day and night conditions (Fig. 1b).
Among the proteins encoded by the PDI and PDI-like genes that have been characterized in soybean [ 25- 28]; GmPDIL-2, the soybean orthologous to the Arabidopsis AtPDIL2-1, in agreement with its potential role in starch biosynthesis was found highly expressed during all the leaf developmental stages and the only protein of the PDI family highly expressed in fully developed leaves [ 26].
One of the most studied microRNAs, mir-21, is recognized as a versatile miRNA which is involved in lots of biological processes, including osteogenesis [ 20]. mir-21 was found highly expressed during osteogenic differentiation, which indicated that mir-21 may possibly repress stemness maintenance in osteoblasts [ 19].
In a library designed to find genes expressed during late chorion formation in B. germanica, we isolated the novel sequence Bg30009 (now called Brownie), which was outstanding due to its high copy number.
Twelve OsCDPK genes exhibit cultivar- and tissue-specific expression [177], and 31 OsCDPK genes were found to express during the vegetative, panicle, and seed developmental stages [135].
Defense responsive proteins are often found to express during fruit ripening, suggesting that both these processes possibly share a common regulator [ 96].
