Interestingly, expression of EIF2AK2 was higher for EHI0578Y05 compared to Mon601 infection in two of three Müller cell isolates (isolates 2 and 3), whereas expression was lower for EHI0578Y05 versus Mon601 infection in the third Müller cell isolate (isolate 1). The gene discussed is EIF2AK2; the disease is infection.
