Gene names are in full description and common abbreviations with a GenBank accession number. The ratio is the normalized mean of the relative expression in EKLF–/– versus EKLF+/+ fetal liver RNA (n = 6). The mean absolute intensities of each gene are given.

*

Genes verified by real-time RT-PCR

Genes that do not have expression fold differences that are enough for listing as possible EKLF targets but are included for comparison and discussion
