Examples of GNF-GEA expression patterns for mouse genes at selected H g and Q. Liver, indicated in red, is the tissue of interest for Q values. (a) Serum albumin (94777_at Alb1) shows very specific liver expression: H = 1.3 bits and Qliver = 2.1 bits. (b) For liver-specific bHLH-Zip transcription factor (99452_at Lisch7), liver is a strong but not dominant part of the expression pattern: H = 3.7 bits and Qliver = 6.8 bits. (c) For chloride channel 7 (104391_s_at Clcn7) there is near uniform expression: H = 4.3 bits and Qliver = 10.2 bits. (d) Gelsolin (93750_at Gsn) is an otherwise widely expressed gene but is expressed at a very low level in the liver: H = 4.4 bits and Qliver = 15.1 bits.
