description: This platform includes ~17,500 oligonucleotides derived from ~2000 viral species.  These oligonucleotides include all of those from the Viro4 platform (GPL6862) as well as ~1700 additional oligonucleoties derived from virus sequences added to databases since the creation of Viro4.  This platform includes control oligonucleotides for human endogenous retroviruses, human genes, yeast intergenic sequences, and human papilloma virus sequences present in HeLa cells.
