functional sense, that question can only be addressed effectively if there is
genetic variation in the particular gene.<span style="mso-spacerun:

unless it is polymorphic between C57BL/6J and DBA/2J, then it cannot generate
a genetic variance signal with which we can work. We can still study
covariance of Fos and hundreds of other transcripts (an interesting
exercise), but there are no genetic causes-and-effects.</font><br>
