Hi everyone, I am doing a project on determining allele specific copy numbers. I have downloaded the Oligo package and installed it on the Windows R environment. But being new to R, I have no idea how to run it. And there is not documentaiton given anywhere along with it. Is there any way i can start the execution? Is there any other package that is better for finding allele specific copy numbers? I desperately want to do this project. Any help in this regard will be appreciated. Thanking you, Aashish Dattani.

The oligo package won't give you allele specific copy numbers right now. It will give you average intensities which can be used later for copy number. A vignette should be appearing in the next days on the BioC servers. In the meantime, you can take a look at: http://www.biostat.jhsph.edu/~bcarvalh/oligo.pdf best, b On Jun 14, 2007, at 1:17 AM, Aashish Dattani wrote: > Hi everyone, > I am doing a project on determining allele specific copy numbers.
