+<blockquote>The chromosomal locations of probe sets and gene markers were determined by BLAT analysis using the Mouse Genome Sequencing Consortium Oct 2003 Assembly (see <a class="normal" href="http://genome.ucsc.edu/cgi-bin/hgBlat?command=start&org=mouse">http://genome.ucsc.edu/</a>).

+<blockquote><strong>Probe (cell) level data from the CEL file: </strong>These CEL values produced by MAS 5 are the 75% quantiles from a set of <a class="normal" href="images/AffyU74.pdf" target="_blank">36 pixel </a>values per cell.
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Step 1: We added an offset of 1.0 to the CEL expression values for each cell to ensure that all values could be logged without generating negative values.</li>
+ <li>Step 2: We took the log2 of each cell.</li>
+ <li>Step 3: We computed the Z score for each cell.</li>
+ <li>Step 4: We multiplied all Z scores by 2.</li>
+ <li>Step 5: We added 8 to the value of all Z scores. The consequence of this simple set of transformations is to produce a set of Z scores that have a mean of 8, a variance of 4, and a standard deviation of 2. The advantage of this modified Z score is that a two-fold difference in expression level corresponds approximately to a 1 unit difference.</li>
+ <li>Step 6: We computed the arithmetic mean of the values for the set of microarrays for each of the individual strains.</li>
+</ul>
+<strong>Probe set data from the TXT file: </strong>These TXT files were generated using the MAS 5. The same simple steps described above were also applied to these values. Every microarray data set therefore has a mean expression of 8 with a standard deviation of 2. A 1-unit difference therefore represents roughly a two-fold difference in expression level. Expression levels below 5 are usually close to background noise levels.</blockquote>

The original March 2003 data freeze provides estimates of mRNA expression in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) from adult female BXD recombinant inbred mice measured using Affymetrix U74Av2 microarrays. Data were generated at the Genomics Institute of the Norvartis Research Foundations (GNF) and by de Haan and colleagues at the University of Groningen. Samples from 22 strains were hybridized to 44 arrays in a single batch. Data were processed using the Microarray Suite 5 (<a class="normal" href="www.affymetrix.com/support/technical/whitepapers/sadd_whitepaper.pdf">MAS 5</a>) protocol of Affymetrix. To simplify comparison between data sets (HSC and other tissues), the MAS 5 values of each array were log2 transformed and adjusted to an average of 8 units.</p>

+<p>Bone marrow cells were flushed from the femurs and tibiae of three mice and pooled. After standard erythrocyte lysis nucleated cells were incubated with normal rat serum for 15 min at 4 degrees Celsius. Subsequently cells were stained with a panel of biotinylated lineage-specific antibodies (murine progenitor enrichment cocktail, containing anti-CD5, anti-CD45R, anti-CD11b, anti-TER119, anti-Gr-1, and anti-7-4, Stem Cell Technologies, Vancouver, Canada), FITC-anti-Sca-1 and APC-anti-c-kit (Pharmingen). Cells were washed twice, and incubated for 30 minutes with streptavidin-PerCP (Pharmingen). After two washes cells were resuspended in PBS with 1% BSA, and purified using a MoFlo flow cytometer. The lineage-depleted bone marrow cell population was defined as the 5% cells showing least PerCP-fluorescence intensity. Stem cell yield across all BXD samples varied from 16,000 to 118,000 Lin-Sca-1+ c-kit+ cells. A small aliquot of each sample of purified cells was functionally tested for stem cell activity by directly depositing single cells in a cobblestone area forming cell assay. The remainder of the cells was immediately collected in RNA lysis buffer. Total RNA was isolated using StrataPrep Total RNA Microprep kit (Stratagene) as described by the manufacturer. RNA pellets were resolved in 500 microliters absolute ethanol, and sent on dry ice by courrier to GNF, La Jolla, CA.</p>
