Figure 4. Boxplots of selected genes differentially expressed in the bowhead whale liver.

(A) Growth factor receptor bound protein 14 (Grb14). (B) Insulin induced gene 1 (Insig1). (C) Cbp/p300-interacting transactivator (Cited2). (D) TP53 Apoptosis Effector (Perp). Genes were subjected to limma analysis at 5% FDR and 2.0 fold-change cut-off. Normalized log2 read counts and P-values adjusted for multiple comparisons (Benjamini and Hochberg) are shown.
