Recent observations have reported the existence of regions in higher eukaryotic chromosomes (including humans) containing genes of related function that show a high degree of coregulation. Copy number alterations will consequently affect to clusters of functionally related genes, which will be the final causative agents of the diseased phenotype, in many cases. Therefore, we propose that the functional profiling of the regions affected by copy number alterations must be an important aspect to take into account in the understanding of this type of pathologies. To illustrate this, we present an integrated study of DNA copy number variations, gene expression along with the functional profiling of chromosomal regions in a case of multiple myeloma.</p>1 aConde, Lucia1 aMontaner, David1 aBurguet-Castell, Jordi1 aTárraga, Joaquín1 aAl-Shahrour, Fátima1 aDopazo, Joaquin  uhttp://clinbioinfosspa.es/content/functional-profiling-and-gene-expression-analysis-chromosomal-copy-number-alterations-002054nas a2200385   4500008004100000022001400041245012300055210006900178260001300247300001000260490000700270520079500277653001201072653002101084653002601105653002201131653003001153653001101183653001301194653002001207653003101227653004401258653002601302653001301328653002401341653002801365100001701393700002001410700002701430700002301457700002001480700002501500700002001525856012301545       2007                        eng d  a1362-496200aISACGH: a web-based environment for the analysis of Array CGH and gene expression which includes functional profiling.0 aISACGH a webbased environment for the analysis of Array CGH and   c2007 Jul  aW81-50 v353 a<p>We present the ISACGH, a web-based system that allows for the combination of genomic data with gene expression values and provides different options for functional profiling of the regions found. Several visualization options offer a convenient representation of the results. Different efficient methods for accurate estimation of genomic copy number from array-CGH hybridization data have been included in the program. Moreover, the connection to the gene expression analysis package GEPAS allows the use of different facilities for data pre-processing and analysis. A DAS server allows exporting the results to the Ensembl viewer where contextual genomic information can be obtained. The program is freely available at: http://isacgh.bioinfo.cipf.es or within http://www.gepas.org.</p>10aAnimals10aCluster Analysis10aComputational Biology10aComputer Graphics10aGene Expression Profiling10aHumans10aInternet10aModels, Genetic10aNucleic Acid Hybridization10aOligonucleotide Array Sequence Analysis10aProgramming Languages10aSoftware10aSystems Integration10aUser-Computer Interface1 aConde, Lucia1 aMontaner, David1 aBurguet-Castell, Jordi1 aTárraga, Joaquín1 aMedina, Ignacio1 aAl-Shahrour, Fátima1 aDopazo, Joaquin  uhttp://clinbioinfosspa.es/content/isacgh-web-based-environment-analysis-array-cgh-and-gene-expression-which-includes-0
