The spreadsheet contains two worksheets. The 'chisq' worksheet lists transcription factor binding sites (TFBSs) differentially associated with the five expression clusters of presynaptic genes in decreasing order of statistical significance. The worksheet lists the TFBSs, the counts of occurrence of the TFBS in clusters 1 to 5, the expected number of TFBSs in clusters 1 to 5, the nominal c2 P value of observing such TFBS frequencies, and the Bonferroni-corrected P value. The 'z score' worksheet lists the TFBSs associated with a given expression profile in order of decreasing enrichment. The table lists the expression cluster number (1 to 5), the count of TFBSs across all clusters, the input size (base pairs) of genome queried for TFBS hits in the given cluster, the expected number of TFBS hits in the given cluster, enrichment, the natural log of the enrichment (the log likelihood), the z score, the P value associated with seeing up to the observed number of TFBSs in the given cluster, and the P value associated with seeing at least the observed TFBS in the given cluster (1 - P value).
