Create Gene List

Now that you have obtained statistical results from the microarray experiment, you can create new spreadsheets containing just those genes that pass certain criteria. This will streamline data management by focusing on just those genes with the most significant differential expression or substantial fold change. The List Manager can be used to specify numerous conditions for selecting genes of interest. In this tutorial, we are going to create a gene list of gene with a fold change between -1.3 to 1.3 that has an unadjusted p-value of < 0.0005. 

...

You can practice creating new gene list criteria of your own to become familiar with the List Manager tool. For more information, you can always click on the () buttons.

Generating Gene Lists from a Volcano Plot

Next, we will generate a list of genes that passed a p-value threshold of 0.05 and fold-changes greater than 1.3 using a volcano plot.
