Pathway enrichment
To better understand the effect of the differentially expressed genes in the doxorubicin study, you will test for enrichment of known biological pathways curated in the KEGG database. Which KEGG pathways are over-represented in the differentially expressed genes for the contrasts "dox_wt" and "interaction"?
