Data ‘ Stemness ’ : Transcriptional Profiling of Embryonic and Adult Stem Cells

The Supplementary Text is a commentary on genes enriched in each stem cell (SC) and on genes enriched in common to all three SCs. The Supplementary Databases (Excel files) contain all the genes enriched in each SC (Databases S1 to S3), the genes enriched in common in all SCs (Database S4) and the genes depleted from all SCs (Database S5). In each Excel file the genes have been arranged into separate spreadsheets according to their functional category. The categories are: a. nucleic acid binding b. cell cycle, oncogenes c. cell death d. receptors e. transporters f. chaperones g. ubiquitin, proteasome h. all genes Database S4 (genes enriched in common in all SCs) contains similar but more detailed functional annotations. All lists can easily be queried by Affymetrix probe set number, Unigene number, gene name, Gene Ontology annotation and enrichment using the " Find " command. 6. References
