## Expression Specificity

To pick up genes expressed *specifically* in a certain tissue/condition the **Find specific profile** function, under the
tools button in the menu, is available. Select the **species**, the **method** (complete profile or a summary if any are
available), the desired **tissue/condition** and **SPM-cutoff** (specificity metric).

![specificity entry](images/specificity_entry.png "Find specific genes form")

Note that if settings change, the number in the button **Show genes** is updated. This shows the number of genes in the
results. Once you have decided on the settings click that button to show the result.

![specificity example](images/specificity_entry.png "Find specific genes result")

An overview of genes specific for a certain tissue (here Root Apices, 7 days after germination). Note that by clicking
the table header the results can be sorted. Genes with an expression level below 10 TPM are flagged as low abundant,
such low expressed genes should be treated carefully as they might comprise false positives !

## Export *all* expressed genes

To enable local analysis, all expressed genes in a certain condition/tissue can be exported using the
**Export expression levels** feature under the tools button in the menu. Select the **species**, the **method** (full profile or
summary if any are available) and the **condition** you wish to export. Click **Export genes** to get the data.

Note that exporting large sets of data can take up to a minute.
