A statistical framework for consolidating "sibling" probe sets for Affymetrix GeneChip data-4

Ottom rows). In the top row, the differential expression of genes "Rho"and "Arr3" between wild type and treatment (Nrl knockout) does not change over sibling probe sets (raw -values for interaction effect are 0.68, 0.89 respectively). In the middle and bottom rows, the differential expression between wild type and treatment for sibling probe sets have either different magnitude or reversed trend. The former is translated into a need for consolidation but not the later.<p><b>Copyright information:</b></p><p>Taken from "A statistical framework for consolidating "sibling" probe sets for Affymetrix GeneChip data"</p><p>http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/9/188</p><p>BMC Genomics 2008;9():188-188.</p><p>Published online 24 Apr 2008</p><p>PMCID:PMC2397416.</p><p>
