Hi group! After normalization of expression data, using SimpleAffy, we observed low fluorescence intensities to every probesets, between 2,15 and 14,6 (mean= 5,78). What value should I set to minimum expression level? For Affymetrix experiments, the default here has been set at log2(10), but I think it seems very stringent to my data, what do you think?

Hi Patricia, Between 2.15 - 14.6 sounds about right. Remember the intensities are in log scale after GCRMA or RMA. In my last affymetrix analysis I think I used ~ 3.5. It was decided in an ad-hoc way by looking at the distributions: those under this threshold in my dataset also had very low variability across samples. 10 seems very stringent cut-off to me. Making plots of your data can help you decide what threshold to use. Best wishes, Alex -------------------------------------------- Alex C.

Hi Alex! Thanks for your suggestions! I think I understood. But, I don?t know how to make these plots (I?m a new user of ?R?). Do you have any manual or exercise that could help me? I?ve tried to make its using simpleaffy commands, but it doesn?t work. I had the error below: plot(significant, type="scatter") Error in .local(x, y, ...) : unused argument(s) (type = "scatter") Thanks again!!!

Hi Patricia, The exprs() function will return a matrix of expression values, with rows being probesets, and columns being samples. For example you can get the mean expression value for each probeset like this: apply(exprs(your.eset.object), 1, mean) This will give you one value per probeset. Then, for example, you can plot a histogram using hist() to inspect the expression distribution. Apart from mean, you can also look at statistics like median or max to decide what is the cut off for low signal.
