  • Two ESTs can be developed from the 5′ and 3′ ends of the same cDNA clone. The number of cDNA clones isolated from each tissue is indicated in the first set of parenthesis. The NCBI acession number of only one EST developed from each tissue is given in the second set of parenthesis.

  • Predicted exons from GRAIL versions Ia and II are counted separately even if the two GRAIL versions predicted overlapping exons. Only GRAIL–predicted exons in the coding strand are included unless otherwise stated.

  • Signal strengths are represented as follows: Strong (++); moderate (+); weak (+−); negative (−).
