Mouse cerebellum

ABSTRACT: Serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) was used to identify and quantify all expressed cerebellar genes in the adult (P92; GSM17430) and aged (P810; GSM17226) C57BL/6J mouse cerebellum. A "closest-neighbor" algorithm was used to differentiate low abundance tags from possible sequencing errors in both libraries. Unique tags were categorized into four groups: (1) novel genes; (2) ESTs; (3) RIKEN, KIA, and hypothetical genes; and (4) known genes. Known genes were further subdivided into functional categories based on the gene ontology classification, using a web-based program developed in this laboratory (MmSAGEClass). Comparison of adult and aged cerebellar libraries revealed several genes that were differentially expressed, including growth hormone and prolactin, both of which
