Additional File 1:

Cluster analysis of differentially-expressed genes. Cluster analysis of differentially expressed genes representing 4482 probe sets from uninfected or LCMV-infected liver samples filtered by having p < 0.05 and at least 20 percent of present call. Each row represents the indicated gene. Each column corresponds to the experimental liver sample as listed at the top. Red indicates an up-regulation of gene expression and green indicates a down-regulation of expression in rhesus macaque liver. The origin of each sample is described in Table 1.

List of differentially-expressed genes in LCMV-infected liver. This list of human probe sets identified in hybridization of rhesus macaque liver cRNA includes those transcripts differentially expressed with respect to uninfected (uninf) control samples (n = 4484), or those transcripts differentially expressed with respect to samples from monkeys that were LCMV-infected but not diseased (nodis). These were identified as differentially expressed using LIMMA analysis. WE1 refers to 4 liver samples taken day 1 to day 3 after infection (pre-viremic stage). WE2 refers to 5 liver samples taken day 4 to day 7 after infection (viremic stage), and WE3 refers to 2 liver samples taken day 11 and day 12 after infection (terminal stage). WEx vs uninf refers to virulent samples being compared to data from 3 uninfected samples. WEx vs nodis refers to virulent samples being compared to data from 6 infected but not diseases samples. Samples are more fully described in Table 1 of the manuscript. Mean fold changes were calculated using a division of log (2)-normalized expression values between experimental sample and uninfected control as described in Materials & Methods. False discovery rate of the pair-wise comparisons were calculated using p-values from LIMMA. Significantly regulated genes were selected using a 2-fold cut-off and a false discovery rate of < 0.05.

Pathway gene expression in LCMV-WE-infected macaque liver tissues. Significantly affected pathway gene expression in LCMV-WE-infected macaque liver tissues. KEGG software was used to identify groupings of genes with pathways based on published data. False discovery rate of the pair-wise comparisons were calculated using p-values from LIMMA. Significantly regulated genes were selected using a 2-fold cut-off and a false discovery rate of < 0.05.
