Hi Jake.
As a starting point, you might have a look at: http://groups.google.com/group/aroma-affymetrix/web/creating-cdf-files-from-scratch In there is a script called 'flat2Cdf.R' that takes a flat file of probe information (X/Y location on the chip, probe sequence, identifiers) and creates a CDF file. I assume you will have this information or can get it. Maybe create 2 such flat files. Alternatively, you should also search the Bioconductor archives. I do recall some discussion on this awhile back and there were some scripts generated that removed probes from CDF environments. In any case, you could also familiarize yourself with the CDF format by taking an existing CDF file and reading it in with readCdf() from the 'affxparser' package. That is always good information to know. As far as I can tell, you won't need to modify anything in the CEL files, you'll just have read from the CEL file twice, once from your SNP-probes-removed CDF file and once from SNP-probes-only CDF file. Hope that helps. Mark > > Hi everyone, > > I'm trying to perform probe level analyses on the HG-U133Plus2 chip > data. Basically I have a set of SNPs that overlap with probes from the > chip.
