Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 5.0

index | previous question | next question

Right now DM is used to assay the quality of each experiment, before BRLMM is run. How will that change with this product?

A set of 3022 SNPs that showed somewhat fragile call rates were picked to be tiled with PM and MM on the SNP 5.0, and are called with DM (confidence score 0.33) to generate a QC call rate in SNP 5.0. A QC call rate of 86% has been determined to indicate acceptable experimental quality, and is thus used to determine passing samples that can be genotyped with BRLMM-P.
