Hi there,

I wonder if somebody has a plugin that merges data sets (BioAssay) from different array design together. Let me be a bit more specific. We have array designs (print ourselves) that are very similar but yet a bit different (eg the order in which plates have been printed, or some plates are missing in one design). If I am correct, BASE matches up spots based on their position when e.g plotting scatter plots to compare signals in hyb 1to those in hyb 2. When I created the array design, I made sure that the features point to the same reporters. What we d like to do is to compare results obtained for the same reporter on the different designs. Note that here reporter = probe, ie we want to compare stuff that are really the same, just spotted at different places.
I was thinking about a plug-in that would :
1. pick arbitrarily one of the 2 array design as a reference
2. convert the other array design to this reference
3. Only spots (based on reporter id matching) that are common would be kept, the other ones would be filtered out 4. The resulting value of merged spots would be customizable, e.g the mean, or the highest or whatever
5. Keeps relation to parent BioAssay

Or something similar.

Any suggestions?

Cheers

Charles
