Each row of data corresponds to a pathway or function enriched among EZH2 target genes in GC B cells. The first column indicates the name of the pathway or function. The second column indicates the number of genes in that pathway/function, with expected number (by chance) in parentheses. The third column shows the overrepresentation P values, calculated using the hypergeometric distribution. The fourth column shows example EZH2 target genes from the enriched categories.
