In SNP genotyping array data, we use the singal intensity at each SNP to infer CNV by using Hidden Markov Model, what does CNV region has anything to do with SNP detected?I am so confused about this! Can anyone give me some help?

Posting the same question twice is not recommended.
The simplest answer to your question is to imagine the signal coming off an A/B heterozygous SNP at different copy number states. If they are 1:1, then the two should have the same signal. If one were at double the copy number, then it is 2:1 and the signal should follow. The overall signal should also be informative; 1:0 should look different than 2:0 and 2:1 should look different from 4:2
The HMM enables the weak, noisy signal of multiple locations to be combined; you wouldn't trust a CNV call from a single element.

hi, thank krobison!
I still don't understand some points here. so choose all the SNP detected and labelled 1, 2, ...., so then we construct a hidden markov model with transition probability and emission probability, and then we infer the hidden states from the the sequence of observed Ratio and BAF signal. But all the we get now is a sequence of hidden states(each hidden state is the copy number 0,1,2,3,4 stats of just a single nucleotide), for example ,if we can sequence of hidden states, 2,2,2,4, what does it mean? It means that at the fourth SNP, the copy number is 4, so it is AAAA,AAAB,AABB,ABBB,BBBB, so we know that there is a copy number variation at the locus the fourth SNP, but then what????What are other copy number variation regions?How do we determine the breakpoints of any copy number variation region?I was confused--what we get is just something on a single locus where a SNP lives!

The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...-

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-
