31. 31 Pool unspecific unique RF (USPP-filtered) Most pool unspecific unique RF are: Q1: internal exonic (72%) Q2: internal exonic (87%) Q3: external (91%) (of which 63% are exonic) 20 unique RF are in more than 4 pools

32. 32 Pool unspecific unique Q3 RF (filtered) - Hits found by blat. - Need to be done again using our highlighted probe simulator.

33. 33 Q3 Q1 Q2 Q1-Q3: Number of pools a unique RF appears in (unfiltered/filtered)

34. 34 Pool-unspecific RFs in Q3 Possibly due to... 1 - cross-hybridization? is there a correlation between number of pools a RF is found in and the number of non-unique probes it overlaps? no by the way 135,380 / 2,191,331 (6%) of probes from chr21/22 chip have multiple perfect matches in genome

35. 35 Pool-unspecific RFs in Q3 Possibly due to... 2 - high GC content? -> Answer: NO!

36. 36 Pool-unspecific RFs in Q3 Possibly due to... 3 - mis-priming on unknown transcripts of chr21 or chr22 (missed by the simulator)? 4 - genuine chimeric transcripts? 5 - Pooling errors the same gene is present in >1 pool because it has 2 different identifiers (UCSC known genes / RefSeq nomenclature discrepancy we found a few cases like this, not sure yet how widespread it is (systematic survey to come)

37. 37 Genes present in several pools 5 genes present in 2 pools: RP5-1042K10.2,NM_015705 (pools 14,15) CHODL,NM_024944 (pools 6,10) NM_005446,P2RXL1 (pools 8,9) ZNF74,NM_003426 (pools 10,13) NM_015367,BCL2L13 (pools 12,3) 1 gene present in 3 pools: NM_021090,NM_001013676,MTMR3 (pools 15,14,16) Eliminate RF present in these pairs/triplets of pools (problematic pool RF)
