Gene Model Summary takes position-level intensity data (for example, output from the
SAM Input Engine) and summarizes it into
exon and
intron bins as defined by an isoform definition file in UCSC format. The
mean of all intensities within a bin is computed as the output value for that bin.
An Annotation SAS Data Set, although not required, can be supplied. This data set provides annotation information, such as gene names, function, physical location, and association, for each of the markers used in the analysis. This data set must have a variable named
Probe_Set_ID that is used to correctly order the
SNPs in the output data set. For more information, see
Annotation Data Set.
The edf_gse18905_2mus_chry_data.sas7bdat file, located in the
\Sample Data\Next-Gen\SAM\GSE18905 directory, serves as an example
Input SAS Data Set, and is shown below.
The mm9_knownGene_chrY.txt file, located in the
\Sample Data\UCSC\Gene directory, serves as an example
Gene Model Text File.
