AffySNPCNVPDInfoPkgSeed-class: Class "AffySNPCNVPDInfoPkgSeed"
In benilton/pdInfoBuilder: Platform Design Information Package Builder

Description Objects from the Class Slots Methods Notes Author(s) Examples

This class represents Platform Design (PD) packages for Affymetrix genomewide (SNP 5.0 and SNP 6.0) arrays.

Objects can be created by calls of the form new("AffySNPCNVPDInfoPkgSeed", cdfFile, csvAnnoFile, csvSeqFile, csvAnnoFileCnv, csvSeqFileCnv, splineParamFile, crlmmInfoFile, referenceDistFile, ...).

cdfFile:: Path to the CDF file for this.
csvAnnoFile:: Path to the Affymetrix CSV annotation for the SNP probes.
csvSeqFile:: Path to the (SNP) probe sequence file.
csvAnnoFileCnv:: Path to the Affymetrix CSV annotation for the CNV probes.
csvSeqFileCnv:: Path to the (CNV) probe sequence file.
splineParamFile:: Path to the spline parameters file used to compute the predicted accuracy of the the genotype calls. Used internally in .predictAccuracy.
crlmmInfoFile:: Path to is data file containing regions data used by the crlmm function.
referenceDistFile:: Path to a reference distribution file used in the normalization step. This is the reference used in snprma.
chipName:: Name of the chip or platform
manufacturer:: chip/platform manufacturer
url:: chip URL
genomebuild:: The genome build this platform is based upon.
organism:: organism for chip.
species:: species for chip.
version:: A character vector giving the version number of the package.
license:: The license of the package
author:: Author of the package
email:: An email address to use in the Maintainer field
biocViews:: Character data for the biocViews field of the DESCRIPTION file

chipName: signature(object = "AffySNPCNVPDInfoPkgSeed"): ...
getGeometry: signature(object = "AffySNPCNVPDInfoPkgSeed"): ...
makePdInfoPackage: signature(object = "AffySNPCNVPDInfoPkgSeed"): ...

*IMPORTANT* Users are strongly advised to download Affymetrix SNP packages from BioConductor.

The files used for slots splineParamFile, crlmmInfoFile, and referenceDistFile are generated by the Bioconductor project for each chip/platform and are hosted in our svn data repository at https://hedgehog.fhcrc.org/bioc-data/trunk/annotation/parms_store. When makePdInfoPackage is run, these files are simply copied to the inst/extdata directory of the generated package.
