  • Need help reading this data

    Hi I am a computer science graduate student and need help reading some data for this bioinformatics research I am helping out on. I have a few hundred text files containing the following sample information:

    Geno SNP_A-8343733 NA
    Geno SNP_A-8338245 1
    Geno SNP_A-8338251 NA
    Geno SNP_A-8338258 0
    Geno SNP_A-8344803 1
    Geno SNP_A-8349310 1

    I want to know how to read this data and what kind of data is this? I am new to Biology and Bioinformatics in general so any help would be greatly appreciated!

    check out "affymetrix array snp calling" output formats and codes

    SNP_A* are snp ids (which map to dbSNPS's rsIDS)

    The code is probably ...
    0=AA (homozygous for the reference allele)
    1=AB (heterozybous)
    2=BB (homozygous for the alternative allele)

    but make sure.

      Okay thank you. I found out that it is affymetrix array snp calling 6.0 but not sure what I can do with this data exactly?

        Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
        by seqadmin


        Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
