View details of a probegroup

When you open the details window for a probegroup, you see the complete information for the probegroup and have access to tools that allow you to take actions on the probegroup.

To open the details window: Locate the probegroup of interest in the table on the Find Designs screen (see View and search for probegroups for instructions). Click directly on the probegroup name. The details window opens for that probegroup.

Information provided in the probegroup details window - Target enrichment probegroups

The SureSelect and HaloPlex probegroup information that is provided in the details window is described below.

General probegroup information

Probegroup Name

The name of the probegroup.

Species

The species that the probegroup was created to capture. The genome build is indicated in parentheses.

Location

The folder where the probegroup is saved.

Description
(if available)

A description of the probegroup.

Not all probegroups have a description. When creating a custom probegroup, you have the option to enter a description, if desired. You can edit the description for probegroups that you created.

Keywords
(if available)

The keywords assigned to the probegroup.

Not all probegroups have keywords. When creating a custom probegroup, you have the option to enter keywords, if desired. You can search for probegroups by keywords. You can edit the keywords for probegroups that you created.

Design information

Target Summary

The target identifiers that were used in probe selection.

Each row in this table is a separate target identifier. The columns in the table are:

Target ID - the gene ID, transcript ID, or genomic coordinates that was used to define the target in the design wizard

Interval - the genomic coordinates where SureDesign mapped the target ID; including any flanking sequences and UTRs that you selected as regions of interest when defining the targets in the design wizard

Length - the total number of base pairs in the target regions

Coverage - the percentage of nucleotides in the target regions that are expected to be captured by one or more probes in the design; the coverage calculation differs for SureSelect and HaloPlex probegroups

# Regions - the number of target regions in the target

# Good Coverage - the number of regions within the target ID that have >90% coverage

Used in Design

Information on the designs that include the probegroup.

This information is presented in table format. Each row of the table is a design that contains the probegroup. The columns in the table are:

Name - the name of the design

Owner - the SureDesign user who created the design; for catalog designs, the owner is Agilent Technologies

Design Size - the total length of all probes in the design

# Probes - the total number of probes from all probegroups in the design, including replicated probes

Probegroup creation information

Created By

The name of the user who created the probegroup.

Catalog designs are created by Agilent Technologies.

Created On

The date that the probegroup was first created.

Probes/Sequenced Regions statistics

# Probes / # Amplicons

The total number of probes (SureSelect) or amplicons (HaloPlex) in the probegroup, including replicates.

Size

SureSelect probegroups: The total size of the genomic footprint of all the probes in the probegroup, which for SureSelect probegroups is an approximation of the size of the sequenceable region.

HaloPlex probegroups: The size of the sequenceable region of the probegroup.

Information provided in the probegroup details window - Microarray probegroups

The microarray probegroup information that is provided in the details window is described below.

General probegroup information

Name

The name of the probegroup.

Species

The species that the probegroup was created to capture.

Category (CGH application only)

The type of probegroup (CGH or SNP).

Location

The folder where the probegroup is saved.

Description
(if available)

A description of the probegroup.

Not all probegroups have a description. When creating a custom probegroup, you have the option to enter a description, if desired. You can edit the description for probegroups that you created.

Keywords
(if available)

The keywords assigned to the probegroup.

Not all probegroups have keywords. When creating a custom probegroup, you have the option to enter keywords, if desired. You can search for probegroups by keywords. You can edit the keywords for probegroups that you created.

Length - the total number of base pairs in the target regions

Coverage - the percentage of nucleotides in the target regions that are expected to be analyzable by one or more probes in the design

Total Probes - the total number of probes covering that interval

Median Probe Spacing - the median number of bp between the starting positions of adjacent probes

Actions you can take from the probegroup details window

·        Click Edit to change the probegroup's description or keywords. This action is only available for probegroups that you created.

·        Click Delete to delete the probegroup. This action is only available for probegroups in Draft status.

·        Click Download to download one or more files with information on the probegroup, including a BED file containing the probe sequences.

·        Click Move to move the probegroup to a different folder. This action is only available for designs that you created.

·        Click the favorites icon (next to the Probegroup Name) to mark the probegroup as a favorite. The icon turns yellow. Click the favorites icon again to remove a probegroup from your favorites. The icon turns back to gray. Your favorite probegroups are listed on the SureDesign Home screen, making them quickly accessible.
