Expression pattern for dihydrodiol dehydrogenase. DNA Microarray analysis of NHMEC strains. Analysis was performed as described on HuGeneFL high-density oligonucleotide microarrays (Affymetrix). Results are plotted as duration of exposure vs signal log ratio (SLR). Signal log ratio is a measure of comparative expression of the treatment vs. vehicle control (0.001% DMSO). Signal log ratio of one is equal to a fold change of two. A SLR of 0.6 (Fold Change ~1.5) was the arbitrary limit of our analysis. All genes given an Absent call by analysis software are shown with a SLR of zero. Asterisks indicate a statistically significant variation in expression from the control level as measured by Tukey's Biweight analysis.
