Functional clustering of murine myogenesis- and erythropoiesis-related functional gene sets. A. Thirty-one functional gene sets with significantly high expression coherences in myogenesis-related expression profile, are categorized into 4 functional clusters. For individual functional gene sets, gene numbers and expression coherence of the corresponding gene sets are also demonstrated in parentheses. Hierarchical clustering was used to measure the distances between functional gene sets and those with similar expression patterns were grouped into individual functional clusters. The expression level of a functional gene set is the mean expression value of the genes belonging to the gene set and schematically illustrated in heat map with gene set dendrogram. B. Three functional clusters composed of 18 functional gene sets are similarly demonstrated for erythropoiesis-related expression profile.
