Can SNP array handle clustered SNPs

Question

[Chen Sun]

Can SNP arrays such as Affymetrix genome-wide SNP array 6.0 handle clustered SNPs.

By clustered SNPs I mean SNPs that are very close to each other, for instance, SNPs that are closer than 10 bp?

Hi Chen,

This doesn't really look like a bioinformatics question to me, and it's a question you probably have to ask Affymetrix themselves. I would expect it's hard to design probes for those SNPs.

Cheers,

I agree, and thank you for the information. I will double think before I ask next time. Please delete if possible.

There is no need to delete questions :-)
