  1. Identification of biological processes related to underexpressed proteins in the white matter of hydrocephalic hyh mice compared with normal (wt) mice. PANTHER GO biological process complete annotation data set by application of a binomial test with Bonferroni correction for multiple testing with P < 0.05 was used. Gene ontology (GO) biological process terms are indicated. The expected value is the number of expected genes in the list for the category based on the reference list. A fold enrichment indicates that the category was overrepresented in hyh mice compared to wt mice
