description: CodeLink UniSet Mouse 20K I Bioarray content is based on the public NCBI, UniGene, and RefSeq databases. Well-annotated mRNA or coding sequences were chosen to ensure usefulness for a large range of applications in basic research, biotechnology, and drug development. Each sequence was carefully screened to ensure high-quality, specific probe design, and to reduce redundancy of gene targets. Every probe was functionally validated against multiple tissues to ensure best representation of the gene so that the results will be biologically relevant. Every bioarray is also functionally validated during production to further ensure quality performance.
  
  CodeLink users can submit data to GEO by exporting tab-delimited text files from the CodeLink software. The "Feature_id" header will need to be renamed to "ID_REF", and the "Normalized_intensity" header to "VALUE" before uploading the exported tables.
  
  In addition, users are encouraged to include additional raw data columns in their data uploads. These additional columns do not need to be renamed.
