(Submitter supplied) Housekeeping genes (HKG) are constitutively expressed in all tissues while tissue-enriched genes (TEG) are expressed at a much higher level in a single tissue type than in others. HKGs serve as valuable experimental controls in gene and protein expression experiments, while TEGs tend to represent distinct physiological processes and are frequently candidates for biomarkers or drug targets. The genomic features of these two groups of genes expressed in opposing patterns may shed light on the mechanisms by which cells maintain basic and tissue-specific functions. more...

Analysis of 42 normal tissues. Housekeeping genes (HKG) are constitutively expressed in all tissues; tissue-enriched genes (TEG) are more highly expressed in a single tissue type than in others. Results provide insight into mechanisms by which cells maintain basic and tissue-specific functions.
