RESUMO

One of the factors limiting the number of genes that can be analyzed on high-density oligonucleotide arrays is that each transcript is probed by multiple oligonucleotide probes. To reduce the number of probes required for each gene, a systematic approach to choosing the most representative probes is needed. A generalizable empiric method is presented for reducing the number of probes per gene while maximizing the fidelity to the original array design.
