  1. Regulation of transcription is the most significantly over-represented Gene Ontology process for this network, consistent with the hypothesis that environmental influences, via ethanol exposure, are transduced through this genetic network to alter TNF and MTHFR expression, folate metabolism, and susceptibility to depression.
