  • Gene expression 'spectra' are generated for pairs of conditions.
  • Differential gene expression is indicated by high amplitudes at the Nyquist Frequency.
  • Gene over- and under-expression is determined by analyzing the 'spectra' phase.

    • Main Results:

    • The DFT method successfully identified differentially expressed genes in validation datasets.
    • Results were comparable to established methods for prostate cancer and macular degeneration datasets.
    • High amplitudes at the Nyquist Frequency correlated with differential gene expression.
    • Phase analysis accurately identified over- and under-expressed genes.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed DFT method offers an efficient approach for identifying differentially expressed genes.
    • This technique facilitates the comparison of gene expression data across multiple array experiments and conditions.
    • The method enhances functional understanding in the post-genome era by simplifying cross-dataset analysis.
