AffyMAPSDetector 1.0 – Affymetrix MicroArray Probe SNP Detector

AffyMAPSDetector 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

 AffyMAPSDetector stands for Affymetrix MicroArray Probe SNP Detector. It detects the presence of SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) in the probes of Affymetrix GeneChipTM expression arrays. However, it can be used to characterize any GeneChipTM with respect to SNPs for which NCBI fully supports gene and SNP annotations (i.e. the organism for which GeneChipTM is desinged and that organism’s genome exists in NCBI nucleotide and SNP database).

ProbeLynx 1.2.2 – Update the Association of Microarray Probes to Genes

ProbeLynx 1.2.2

:: DESCRIPTION

ProbeLynx is a web-based tool for updating the association of microarray probes to genes. using the latest genomics sequence information and experimentally determined cross-hybridization cutoffs, ProbeLynx allows users to upload microarray probe sequences to re-examine probe specificity and provide annotation updates relevant to determining which gene(s) and transcript(s) are associated with a given probe.
