  1. Most of the genes were included in the matrix because they had been genetically determined to be PAL-1 targets (that is, their expression either directly or indirectly depends on PAL-1 function) and were therefore presumed to have genetic interactions among them. Three additional genes encoding transcriptional regulators (lin-26, ceh-40, and unc-62) were included as their phenotypes and expression patterns suggest that they may have genetic interactions with PAL-1 targets. TF, transcription factor.
