\begin{Description}\relax
This data package contains an \code{\LinkA{exprSet}{exprSet}} instance for the
yeast cell cycle microarray experiment. The dataset contains gene expression
measures (log-ratios, with Cy3-labeled common reference) for
6,178 yeast genes in 77 conditions.
\end{Description}
\begin{Usage}
\begin{verbatim}data(yeastCC)\end{verbatim}
\end{Usage}
\begin{Details}\relax
There are four main timecourses:
alpha (alpha factor arrest), cdc15, cdc28, and elu (elutriation), corresponding to different
synchronization methods. For details on experimental procedures and
analysis, refer to Spellman et al. (1998) (in \url{../doc})
and the Yeast Cell Cycle
Analysis Project website (\url{http://genome-www.stanford.edu/cellcycle/}). 
The
\code{\LinkA{exprSet}{exprSet}} instance \code{yeastCC} was derived from the
file "combined.txt" on the website. The ORF names for the 800 cell
cycle regulated genes are stored in \code{\LinkA{orf800}{orf800}}.
\end{Details}
\begin{Source}\relax
The raw data (images, TIFF) and processed data "combine.txt" used to create the
\code{\LinkA{exprSet}{exprSet}} instance \code{yeastCC} are available from the
Yeast Cell Cycle
Analysis Project website
(\url{http://genome-www.stanford.edu/cellcycle/}). 
Gene annotation
information is available from the Saccharomyces Genome Database (SGD,
\url{http://genome-www.stanford.edu/Saccharomyces/gene_list.shtml}).
The script "createYeastCC.R" for generating the \code{yeastCC} package is available in  \url{../doc}.
