The data from the breast cancer gene expression study of Hedenfalk et al. (2001) were obtained and analyzed. A comparison was made between 3,226 genes of two mutation types, BRCA1 (7 arrays) and BRCA2 (8 arrays). The data included here are p-values, test-statistics, and permutation null test-statistics obtained from a two-sample t-test analysis on a set of 3170 genes, as described in Storey and Tibshirani (2003).

A
3,170 by 100 matrix of absolute two-sample t-statistics from 100 independent
permutations of the BRCA1 and BRCA2 labels; the row |
