Hey guys. I am reading a great article (Ross, D. T.; Perou, C. M. Dis. Markers 2001, 17, 99–109), and am trying to figure out the genetic footprints and differences between 2 tumor cell lines. First I tried to manually compare colors in the original figure (http://genome-www.stanford.edu/breast_cancer/cell_line_review2001/images/figure1.html) and find red/green pairs, but something tells me there’s a more elegant way to use data. So I found supplementary sheets made by GenePix software (http://genome-www.stanford.edu/breast_cancer/cell_line_review2001/data/), for cell lines that I was interested in. These sheets got a bunch of columns with different names and values for every gene. Since I’m not familiar with gene expression lingo, could somebody point me to a column that shows the level of expression of a particular gene, ie the exact column that correlates to the color in the above linked picture?

Thanx!

Here are the columns:
