^aBrain cortex includes parietal lobe (Qnp), temporal lobe (Qtr), occipital lobe (Qor), and frontal lobe (Qfl).
^bBrain stem includes medulla oblongata (Qmo) and the other part of brain stem (Qbs).
^cThese sequences were determined by the previous studies [8–10, 12].
^dNumber of human RefSeq genes that have macaque homologs in each library.
^eTheNumber of macaque cDNA clones that do not have human RefSeq homologs.
^fEstimated from randomly chosen 1000 macaque transcripts, averaged over 1000 simulations.
