[ensembl-dev] Funcgen array mapping - Probeset with strange annotation result

Bearing in mind that there are no unmapped objects Nathan, have you any
other ideas what might be happening here?

 

Do you think there's an easy way I could run exonerate just for these 11
probes to inspect the output?

Hi Gavin

 

Not having mapped this probe set myself, I can't really tell what's
going on.  Have you tried looking at the unmapped objects for these
probes?  It could be that the other are 'promiscuous'.

Hi all,

 

One of our users has pointed out a probeset (affy utr format) that seems
to be retrieving some unexpected annotation info via the FuncGen array
mapping environment.

 

The probeset annotates to ENSG00000140853  but only seems to return
probe features for four probes i.e. the end result says 4/11 probes
align.  However when I look at the alignment manually using Ensembl or
NCBI it looks like all probes align.  

 

To try and ensure that my scripts aren't doing anything funny, I set up
a quick test like this:

 

my @probes = @{$probeset->get_all_Probes};

 

        foreach my $probe (@probes) {

                my @probefeatures = @{$probe->get_all_ProbeFeatures()};

                foreach my $feature(@probefeatures) {

                        print $feature->probe_id."\n";

                }

        }

 

And sure enough only 4 probe IDs are returned.

 

The probes look like this:

Can anyone suggest what might be happening?
