Hi, I was trying to get the gene mapping for one of the datasets in Affymetrix. I found a dissimilarity between Affymetrix file and the database in hgu133plus2.
As per example, For the probeset "1553011_at", I have found a mapping to both these ENTREZ ID's 6872 /// 138474 in the file downloaded from AFfymetrix website. But in the hgu133plus2 database it is only mapped to 138474. Moreover, in all the cases where a probeset is mapped to multiple genes in the Affymetrix file, only one of them is chosen as mapped gene in the hgu133plus2. I wish to know in what basis the other genes are ommitted from mapping. Was there any algorithm to select the mapped gene among the multiple one's?
