[BioC] Affy miRNA

[Hooiveld, Guido]

To follow up op on this:

I also just got the data of my miRNA profiling experiment performed on
Affy arrays. 
Upon request Manhong Dai and Fan Meng at the MBNI were so kind to
'remap' the miRNA probes last August to mirBASE version 13, both to
genome loaction and fasta files, for human, mouse and rat. Please find
the links below. Also note that last september mirBASE updated to
version 14, so the remapping *might* not completely up to date (although
I don't think human/mouse/rat are seriously affected).

With these custom CDF it should be possible to read the data using
ReadAffy().
Currently I am evaluating which normalization strategy would be best for
these relatively small number of probesets. RMA may indeed be an good
option, but I have read before on this list that VSN may also be a good
normalization method (in the the discussion regarding the Agilent miRNA
array [1-color]).

Hi,


mirbase custom CDF is generated.

http://brainarray.mbni.med.umich.edu/Brainarray/Database/CustomCDF/12.0.
0/mirbaseg.asp is based on genome location, the files we used can be got
by searching 'miRNAgff' in
http://brainarray.mbni.med.umich.edu/Brainarray/Database/CustomCDF/12.0.
0/version.html


http://brainarray.mbni.med.umich.edu/Brainarray/Database/CustomCDF/12.0.
0/mirbasef.asp is based on mirbase fasta files, which are the bottom
three lines of
http://brainarray.mbni.med.umich.edu/Brainarray/Database/CustomCDF/12.0.
0/version.html


       
        Please let me know if you came across any problem.


Best,
Manhong
