Scan protocol GeneChips were scanned with Affymetrix GCC Scan Control v. 3.0.0.1214 on a GeneChip® Scanner 3000 with autoloader.
Data processing oligo-level data was rma background corrected, quantile normalized and log2 transformed using Bioconductor packages tilingArray and preprocessCore on R version 2.9

wiggle file showing the results of all the above contrasts. Normalization of the tiling array data: All tiling arrays were processed in R using bioconductor and the packages tilingArray and preprocessCore. The arrays were RMA background corrected, quantile normalised and log2 transformed on the oligo level using the following command: expr <- log2(normalize.quantiles(rma.background.correct(exprs(readCel2eSet(filenames,rotated=TRUE))))). Contrasts were computed on the oligo level by subtracting respective columns of expression. Reannotation of the Affymetrix S. pombe Tiling 1.0FR Array: The sequences of the 1174792 perfect match oligos were extracted from the BPMAP file Sp20b_M_v04.bpmap (www.affymetrix.com) using the readBpmap function from the affxparser package. Alignment to the S. pombe genome (May 8, 2009, http://www.sanger.ac.uk/Projects/S_pombe/) was performed by the software bowtie (version 0.9.9.1) allowing for up to 100 matches per oligo. Correcting a bias caused by variable fragment size between GATC restriction sites: While inspecting oligo level contrasts in a genome browser we noticed enrichment breakpoints coinciding with GATC restriction sites. Therefore we speculated that during sample preparation, certain fragment sizes might be depleted or enriched. Plotting the fragment sizes between two GATC restriction sites against the average enrichment in the corresponding fragment confirmed this observation on a genome-wide scale. We speculated that this resulted from small differences in the sample preparation process, probably during the step of size selection. In addition to fragment size-dependent mean enrichment/depletion, we noticed discontinuity of the contrast variability coinciding with GATC restriction sites. We plotted the fragment sizes between two GATC restriction sites against the standard deviation of the enrichment in the corresponding fragment and observed discontinuities on a genome-wide level. Both observed effects are highly unlikely to be of biological origin because they are tightly correlated to the fragment size between GATC restriction sites. Therefore, we designed a software that would at least partially reverse the bias and correct the initial data. For every contrast independently, the corrector walks through all the fragments (between GATCs) and adjusts the mean and the standard deviation of all the oligos that are located within the fragment. The adjustment is fragment size-dependent and the extent of correction is determined from the lowess fit of the corresponding contrast. In more detail, for a given fragment size, the value of the lowess smoother is evaluated and compared to the average level of the given contrast. Therefore the corrector does not modulate the overall mean or the variability of the contrasts.
