Abstract
DNA microarrays have several uses in biological research. In the field of human genetics, they are used to characterize genome-wide patterns of variation. Affymetrix Genome-wide Human SNP array 6.0 microarrays genotype ~900,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and copy number variants (CNVs) across the genome. Analysis methods for genotyping arrays rely on statistical approaches to generate accurate data. Two recurrent problems with these methods are evident. The first is the existence of batch effects. The second lies in the fact that these approaches often discard a large fraction of the raw data from probes that systematically fail across experiments. In order to address and understand these problems, we developed a novel analysis method that is based on a low-level model of hybridization on microarrays. We model binding between all probe-DNA duplexes that form on the array. In addition we model errors in probe synthesis, hybridization conditions (temperature, salt concentration), and details of the experimental protocol (target concentration, target fragmentation, wash stringency, and scanner settings). We used this model to predict probe intensities. The average correlation between expected and observed intensities was 0.701 with a range of 0.88 to 0.55. In this model batch effects are caused by differences in probe synthesis efficiency, target concentration, target fragmentation, wash stringency, and scanner settings. We used this model to develop a SNP and CNV genotyping algorithm that explicitly models batch effects and cross-hybridization. Our approach allows for the individual analysis of chips and can call SNPs and CNVs on chromosomes of any ploidy. We used this approach to analyze Down syndrome and normal samples. A significant percentage (13%) of SNPs that are targeted by Affymetrix 6.0 have high levels of cross-hybridization. Each SNP call has a quality score (QS). SNPs on trisomic chromosomes had lower QS scores (57% with QS> 0.99) than SNPs on diploid chromosomes (84% with QS > 0.99). Our approach uses direct estimates of DNA concentration to call CNVs. We called an average of 50 CNVs per samples of which 68% are in known CNV regions. Using only first-principles our method detects genetic variants with a comparable accuracy to current approaches.
