description: Design ID: 8076
  Design name: 080814_HG18_Deluxe_Promoter_HX1
  Genome build: HG18
  
  HG18 promoter design,  mean probe spacing 99, median 100.  This design consists of (from Jacob):
  1) Promoter regions, from 7250 bases upstream of each TSS to 3250 bases downstream.
  2) miRNA genes, starting from 15kbp upstream of the mature gene product to its 3' end.
  3) CpG islands.
  4) ENCODE regions.
  Probes were chosen from the hg18_tiling database. Most probes were chosen at an int65win35max1. Any region that resulted in no coverage from this selection was  re-selected at int10win90max10.
  Slide 1 of 3. August 2008 - update to some regions. Probes are completely randomized across DMD's.
