I have a set of Affy human gene expression arrays (HG-U133_Plus2.1)
CEL files representing a treated sample over a number of time points.
I'd like to compare the expression of these files not just on the
genes they probe but on the exons.
I know I should be using exon arrays for this, but what I have is a
gene arrays, so I want to see how much I can do with that. If I can
find the differential expression in an individual probe, I can map it
to an exon. This should give me a limited view of which exons are
changing expression between the arrays.
I was planning to use the Rank Product method:
http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/bioc/html/RankProd.html
as the differential expression algorithm. Can anybody give me any
advice on adapting this to work on individual probes, rather than
whole genes? Or am I completely wasting my time on this?
