choedata: A Subset of the Choe et al. (2005) ``Golden Spike'' Experiment

Description

These data are expression levels for a subset of the genes investigated in the Choe et al. (2005) ``Golden Spike'' Affymetrix case-control experiment.

From the original data the 2,535 probe sets for spike-ins with ratio 1:1 were removed, leaving in total 11,475 genes with 3 replicates per group, and 1,331 known differentially expressed genes.

Usage

data(choedata)

Arguments

Format

choe2.mat is a matrix of dimension 6 times 11,475. It contains the samples in its rows and the genes in its columns.

choe2.L describes the case control-structure of the experiment, and choe2.degenes indicates the known differentially expressed genes. choe2.symbol.name, choe2.probe.name, and choe2.mapping provide additional information on the investigated genes.
