FIG. 2. Gene expression profiles in gill tissue from control and heat shocked
Gillichthysmirabilis. Each row represents a single cDNA clone and
each column represents a timepoint in the heat shock exposure. Genes depicted
are those that were up- or downregulated at least twofold compared to the
averaged values of the three control timepoints. Genes are clustered by
cellular process, according to their gene ontology (GO) classification.
Clustered processes are: (1) protein rescue and folding, (2) protein
degradation, (3) protein synthesis, (4) proteolysis, (5) cell signaling, (6)
cell proliferationand growth, (7) transcriptional regulation, (8) cytoskeletal
structure and reorganization,(9) cell-cell or cell-matrix adhesion, (10)
carbohydrate metabolism, (11) fatty acidmetabolism, (12) transport, (13)
apoptosis and (14) other functions. For clarity, only two rows are dedicated
to genes represented by
two spots on the array. C, control; HS, heat
shock, R; recovery.
