Affymetrix 250k NspI array App SNP positions Average spacing 1 SNP / bp Analysis using the CNAG 3.0 software ( Copy number detection in Neuroblastomas using the Affymetrix Microarray platform

NBL case 1p deletion MYCN amplification 17q gain
1p deletion in two NBL cases
MYCNALK Three NBL cases with MYCN amplification
For more information on our NBL arrayCGH data set, see recent publication: Carén et al., BMC Genomics :353.
Three NBL cases: NMA + few additional structural changes
Three NBL cases: No structural aberrations - only numerical changes
A few omitted slides - data will be submitted for publication soon
SNP arrays enable us to … Comparison with ”classic” aCGH 1.Measure the gene dosage for each SNP locus 2.Identifes the genotype call for each of e.g. 250k SNP loci - A/A A/B B/B Given 1 and 2 ; differences in allele intensity can be estimated - e.g.more detailed detection of loss A/- B/- - allelic imbalance e.g. A/A/B - copy neutral LOH N: A/B T: A/A -
