Changes in gene expression caused by loss of Med1 in the mouse prostate

MED1 is a transcriptional coactivator for gene-specific activators involved in growth and development, we were interested in identifying MED1 target genes potentially involved in prostate development by cDNA microarray. Med1 was conditional knocked out in mice prostate. We performed cDNA microarray with two sets: (1) RNA isolated from three WT ventral prostates and three MT ventral prostates; (2) RNA isolated from three WT lateral prostates and three MT lateral prostates.
