The expression data served in SCAN had been assayed in HapMap LCLs (87 CEU and 89 YRI) with the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Exon 1.0 ST Array [29]. The exon array measures both exon-level and gene-level expression, includes approximately 1.4 million probesets, and profiles over 17,000 gene transcripts.
