RT-PCR results compared to chip results As a quality control measure, correlation of data between the GeneChip and QPCR was highly significant (P < 0.001) indicating internal consistency.

In spite of this difference, we still expected to see the same trend across samples, which was the case for type 1 MHC (gene MYH8 ) and type 2X MHC (gene MYH1 ) where protein and mRNA levels were significantly correlated (Figures 4A and 4C ; P < 0.05) while type 2A MHC (gene MYH4 ) did not quite reach significance (Figure 4B ; P = 0.065).
