| Abstract | Recent reports indicate that copy number variations (CNVs) within the human genome contribute to nucleotide diversity to a larger extent than single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). In addition, the contribution of CNVs to human disease susceptibility may be greater than previously expected, although a complete understanding of the phenotypic consequences of CNVs is incomplete. We have recently reported a comprehensive view of CNVs among 270 HapMap samples using high-density SNP genotyping arrays and BAC array CGH. In this report, we describe a novel algorithm using Affymetrix GeneChip Human Mapping 500K Early Access (500K EA) arrays that identified 1203 CNVs ranging in size from 960 bp to 3.4 Mb. The algorithm consists of three steps: (1) Intensity pre-processing to improve the resolution between pairwise comparisons by directly estimating the allele-specific affinity as well as to reduce signal noise by incorporating probe and target sequence characteristics via an improved version of the Genomic Imbalance Map (GIM) algorithm; (2) CNV extraction using an adapted SW-ARRAY procedure to automatically and robustly detect candidate CNV regions; and (3) copy number inference in which all pairwise comparisons are summarized to more precisely define CNV boundaries and accurately estimate CNV copy number. Independent testing of a subset of CNVs by quantitative PCR and mass spectrometry demonstrated a >90% verification rate. The use of high-resolution oligonucleotide arrays relative to other methods may allow more precise boundary information to be extracted, thereby enabling a more accurate analysis of the relationship between CNVs and other genomic features. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
