  • How to read an Affymetrix Axiom genotype (array data) file?

    Hi,

    I'm trying to put together genotype data for wheat samples from this resource:


    The two types of file I get look like this (array probe set):
    Code:
    Affymetrix Code,Bristol Affy Code,Bristol SNP Code,Bristol Contig Code,Sequence (including SNP ambiguity code)
    AX-94381124,BA00222391,No BS code,GJKKTUG01CGTKM_219,...ACGCA[R]ACNTC...
    AX-94381126,BA00232763,No BS code,FZU8VVO01APRT5_148,...TCACT[Y]GNGTG...
    AX-94381127,BA00233916,No BS code,contig77177_250,...CCCGA[M]NCGAC...
    ...
    and (Array data):
    Code:
    A_mutica,A_speltoides,Adhoc,Ae_caudata,Akteur,A...
    AX-94381124,1,-1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,...
    AX-94381126,1,2,2,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2
    AX-94381127,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,2...
    ...
    The only other information provided about the files is this explanation:
    0 = AA, 1 = AB, 2 = BB, -1 = No call

    So the question is, what information is required to map from genotype 'score' to actual genotype? Obviously heterozygous calls are clear and distinguished from homozygous calls, but is A. speltoides AA or GG at AX-94381124?

    Are these actually Affymetrix Axiom format files, or just something custom?


    Thanks for help,
    Dan.

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin




    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...

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    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...
