Figure 1

The samples were measured with SNP arrays and exon arrays. The associations are computed between the gene copy numbers and gene expression values. Further, the effects of the SNP changes on the transcriptomics data in the levels of genes, transcripts and exons with two intervals, long and short, are studied. The gene, transcript, and exon expression values, measured with the exon array, are illustrated in blue, while the CNV and SNP values obtained with the SNP 6.0 array are colored red. The arrows indicate the used values in each of the association analyses. The analysis results five lists of associations; 1) gene CNV – gene expression, 2) SNP – gene expression, 3) SNP – transcript expression, 4) SNP – exon (short) expression, and 5) SNP – exon (long) expression.
