The phrase "genes were enriched" is grammatically correct and can be used in written English.
It is often used in scientific or technical writing when discussing the process of increasing the concentration or number of specific genes in a sample or population. Example: "The results of the study showed that the genes were significantly enriched in the group of patients with the disease, indicating a potential genetic link to its development."
The gonad-enriched genes were enriched in the following GO terms: sexual reproduction and gamete generation.
Notch signaling genes were enriched to a lesser extent and their enrichment was not significant.
From the functional enrichment analysis, we found that the duplicated genes were enriched in olfactory function, whereas the deleted genes were enriched in immune regulation and metabolic processes (Additional file 1 Table S8, Table S9, Table S10, and Table S11).
Down-regulated genes were enriched for melanocyte differentiation factors; e.g., KIT, PAX3 and SOX10 became methylated and downregulated in melanoma.
WebGestalt revealed that the 22 genes were enriched in 10 KEGG pathways, four of which are related to alcoholic diseases.
pSCNAs significantly overlapped with Alu and G-quadruplexes, and the affected genes were enriched for signaling and regulation.
Interestingly, cellular component and nucleus related genes were mainly involved in Group I, while cell plate and cytoskeleton related genes were enriched in the Group IV.
Proteasome genes were enriched among the 154 identified genes that show higher dependency in basal-like transformed cells than in myoepithelial-like transformed cells.
Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) Orthology-based Annotation System (KOBAS) analyses further indicated that light- and gravity-responsive genes were enriched in accession C792, whereas lignin synthesis-related genes were enriched in accession C793, which well explains the difference in lignification of vascular bundles and mechanical tissues in the two accessions.
We found 73 genes were enriched 2 fold or greater in LeX positive generated neurospheres and 15 genes were enriched in LeX negative generated neurospheres (Supplemental Table 4).
One hundred fifty genes were enriched in spinal cord derived neurospheres while 79 genes were enriched in cortical derived neurospheres (Supplemental Table 2).
