Abstract: The presently claimed invention provides for novel methods and kits for analyzing a collection of target sequences in a nucleic acid sample. A sample is amplified under conditions that enrich for a subset of fragments that includes a collection of target sequences. The invention further provides for analysis of the above sample by hybridization to an array, which may be specifically designed to interrogate the collection of target sequences for particular characteristics, such as, for example, the presence or absence of one or more polymorphisms.

Abstract: A computer program product, and related systems and methods, are described that processes emission intensity data corresponding to probes of a biological probe array. The computer program includes a genotype and statistical analysis manager that determines absolute or relative expression values based, at least in part, on a statistical measure of the emission intensity data and at least one user-selectable statistical parameter. The analysis manager may also determine genotype calls for one or more probes based, at least in part, on the emission intensity data. The analysis manager may further display the absolute or relative expression values based, at least in part, on at least one user-selectable display parameter and/or a measure of normalized change between genotype calls. The measure of normalized change may be based, at least in part, on a comparison of genotype calls and a reference value.

Abstract: Methods of preparing normalized mixtures from a plurality of nucleic acid samples are disclosed. Nucleic acids are amplified so that similar amounts of a target nucleic acid are generated in a plurality of different reactions. Separate amplification reactions are performed to amplify the same or different targets in a plurality of different reactions. The amounts of amplified product are approximately normalized during the amplification without the need to empirically measure the amount of amplified target.
