  1. Note that some markers may be included in multiple rows of the table (as many as indicated in the right-most column), because a number of genes have been identified as markers of more than one cell type (for example, Abcg2 for hematopoietic and neural cells [78,82], or Nestin for neural and skin-derived precursors [SKPs] [81,87]). Some of the markers could not be assigned to an Entrez gene either because the marker name was ambiguous (indicated by 'a') or was absent from the database of gene names (indicated by '?'). Patterns can be examined online via the web server [21]. All patterns for which a polled probe set is a marker can also be examined at the web server. Note that the chip containing the probe set is indicated by '.A' or '.B' appended to the identifier, because some probe sets are included in both the MOE430A and the MOE430B chips.
