The Copy Number Variation (CNV) Project Data Description

Information on the CNV project and CNV data can be found at at the FAQ


Sample :

It corresponds to the HapMap Individual that has been used for the WGTP array.


Mapping files :

The 2 GAL file are for the mapping on the WGTP array.
WGTP_array_map1.gal is to use with experiments until 23/09/2005 and WGTP_array_map2.gal with experiments from 27/09/2005.
The text file WGTP_clone_map_NCBIxx.txt contains the mapping of the Human clones ( for both assembly NCBI35 (May 2004) and NCBI36 (March 2006) ).


Log2ratios Intensities for the 269 Hapmap Individuals :

This single text file contains the mean dye-swap intensity for each clone in each individual.
All experimental artefacts , as given by this list, have been removed from this file.


Pre processed ( Raw ) intensities ( from BlueFuse ) :

Foreach individual there are 2 files : one per intensity signal ( red, green ).
Fluorescence intensities and log2 ratio values were extracted using the Bluefuse software (Bluegnome Ltd) from the scanner (raw) images.


Post processed intensities ( from BlueFuse ) :

Foreach individual there are 2 files : one per intensity signal ( red, green ).
These excel files are derived from the Raw intensities excel file after a post processing from the software BlueFuse.
This post processing consisted in :
  • Any spot giving low signal intensities ("amplitude"<100 in both channels) or inconsistent fluorescence patterns ("confidence" < 0.5 or "quality" = 0) was excluded from further analysis.
  • Log2 ratio values were then normalised by median block values, still using Bluefuse capabilities.


  • Raw images green/red :

    Foreach individual there are 2 files : one per intensity signal ( red, green ).
    These images are the raw output from the laser scanner (Agilent Technologies) after the experiment.
    Only examples are available here .
    For any interest in downloading some other image files, please contact Matthew Hurles .


    Validation data :

    All the validation datafiles are in the same format than the one provided for the WGTP Array.
