Microarray probes and reads from massively parallel sequencing technologies are two most widely used genomic tags for a transcriptome study. Names and underlying technologies might differ, but expression technologies share a common objective-to obtain mRNA abundance values at the gene level, with high sensitivity and specificity. However, the initial tag annotation becomes obsolete as more insight is gained into biological references (genome, transcriptome, SNP, etc.). While novel alignment algo ...[more]
