Following the identification of the physical positions of each QTL, a comprehensive list of genes mapping to a region ±15 cM from the most likely position of the QTLs was collated using the Ensemble databases.
Data were collated using the Stanford Microarray Database [ 90] in which spots showing obvious abnormalities were excluded from the analysis and an uncentered metric was used during the clustering.
Such diagrams from our study, the HNSCC study and all cancer studies from TCGA were collated using the image-editing tool, GIMP (v2.8.0) (www.gimp.org).
The resulting microarray data were collated using the Stanford Microarray Database and utilized for pairwise analysis using the Statistical Analysis for Microarrays (SAM) algorithm and the student's two-tailed t-test to identify genes showing significant changes in expression.
Then electronic audio and slide files had to be collated using email or USB data-sticks and manually uploaded.
The Blast hits were collated using Perl scripts and the percentage of bases from each model covered by transcripts calculated.
The experimental results are collated using an empirical term, based on particle impact parameters.
This dataset is collated using reports from oncology centres and financial data of the National Health Fund.
Epidemiological data from 110 patients that presented a minor, moderate or severe envenomation were collated using Excel and Epi-Info software.
Read densities and counts per transcript were collated using custom Perl and R scripts.
