CNV from TCGA level 3

[papori]

Hi all!
I am looking for CNV public profiles for the TCGA data to use as a reference.
Do you know if there are TCGA level 3 copy number profiles that available for more than GBM, OV and LUSC?

For example: BRCA, COAD, HNSC etc.

i found here that only these are availble..

Thanks,
Pap

There are many snp6 copy number level 3 files for many TCGA diseases.

Thanks! but i need the Copy number alterations for aggregated/segmented regions, per sample, and not the SNP data..

Copy number can be guestimated from SNP6 data.

Hi! great! i think...

What i understand from this format is that if the "Segment_Mean" negative, there is assuming for "loss", and if its possitive assuming for "gain".
If i will (2^Segment_Mean)*2 i will get the actual CN.

Am i right?

BTW, what is the difference between the *hg19.seg.txt file and *nocnv_hg19.seg.txt file?
i can see the "no" in the name, but both looks like CN files......

Thanks!!
