[BioC] Limma:Single Channel Normalization for two color Arrays

Binita,

I hope Gordon Smyth doesn't mind my quoting him (from a previous response to
the same question):

"...On reading your question again, I'm guessing that you're wanting the
normalized single-channel red and green intensities. Is this right? If so,
you can get them from

RG <- RG.MA(MA)

(see the last section of the Limma User's Guide) where MA is the normalized
MAList object, then write RG$R and RG$G to file. Or possibly form
cbind(RG$G,RG$R) and write that to one file...."

There are multiple other responses to the list in the past regarding
transforming MA back to RG.

Hope this helps.

Sean
