Visualization Of Cnvs

Question

[pashadag]

I am trying to generate a figure like the one in Panel B: here: http://www.pnas.org/content/104/50/20007/F2.large.jpg

Does anyone know how this type of figure can be generated?

[Josh Herr]

Could you give us a little more information? Without any reference, figure text, or key, I'm not 100% sure what this figure is showing.

This type of figure is a GISTIC (Genomic Identification of Significant Target In Cancer) result. http://www.broadinstitute.org/cgi-bin/cancer/publications/pub_paper.cgi?mode=view&paper_id=162

the GISTIC analysis is available on GenePattern analysis platform. http://genepattern.broadinstitute.org/gp/pages/login.jsf
