Figure 1
MA-plots of differentially expressed genes in dVHL1.1/+ Malpighian tubules. (A) Upregulated genes (average M > 0.5, p < 0.1) are shown in red while downregulated genes (average M<-0.5, p < 0.1) are shown in blue. (B) Genes for which the alteration in gene expression (M > 0.5 or M<-0.5) was recovered in 3 out of 4 slides are shown in green. (C) Genes that satisfy both the cut-off conditions in (A,B) are shown with red triangle.

Figure 2
Validation and classification of differentially expressed genes in dVHL1.1/+ Malpighian tubules. (A) Fold change in transcription levels of dGrip75 and CG31955 genes in the microarray analysis. (B) qRT-PCR analysis of dGrip75 and CG31955 transcript levels in individuals of the reported genotypes. 3 biological replicates of tubules from 5-days old dVHL1.1/+ and wild type females were analyzed. Graphs represent mean ± SD; p = 0.0152 (dGrip75) and p = 0.0153 (CG31955).
