Affymetrix GeneChip microarray preprocessing for multivariate analyses
Affymetrix GeneChip microarrays are the most widely used high-throughput technology to measure gene expression, and a wide variety of preprocessing methods have been developed to transform probe intensities reported by a microarray scanner into gene expression estimates. There have been numerous comparisons of these preprocessing methods, focusing on the most common analyses-detection of differ...
متن کاملQuality assessment of Affymetrix GeneChip data.
Affymetrix GeneChips are one of the best established microarray platforms. This powerful technique allows users to measure the expression of thousands of genes simultaneously. However, a microarray experiment is a sophisticated and time consuming endeavor with many potential sources of unwanted variation that could compromise the results if left uncontrolled. Increasing data volume and data com...
متن کاملAssessing quality of hybridized RNA in Affymetrix GeneChip experiments using mixed-effects models.
The technology for hybridizing archived tissue specimens and the use of laser-capture microdissection for selecting cell populations for RNA extraction have increased over the past few years. Both these methods contribute to RNA degradation. Therefore, quality assessments of RNA hybridized to microarrays are becoming increasingly more important. Existing methods for estimating the quality of RN...
متن کاملComparison of Affymetrix GeneChip expression measures
MOTIVATION In the Affymetrix GeneChip system, preprocessing occurs before one obtains expression level measurements. Because the number of competing preprocessing methods was large and growing we developed a benchmark to help users identify the best method for their application. A webtool was made available for developers to benchmark their procedures. At the time of writing over 50 methods had...
متن کاملExpression Profiling Using Affymetrix GeneChip Microarrays.
The approximately 25,000 genes in mammalian genomes can be transcribed at different levels. Measurements of gene expression for ten thousands of genes in parallel give the most comprehensive picture of steady-state levels of transcripts and is used in basic and applied research. Microarrays are the most frequently used technology for genome-wide expression profiling; from the various available ...
