Microarrays come in two basic flavours: complementary DNA (cDNA) or oligonucleotide arrays. cDNA arrays can be obtained commercially on filters, or made on glass slides. To compare mRNA levels in ...
The field of DNA microarray data analysis is getting increasingly complicated as scientists develop new array technologies and analysis algorithms, yet accurate introductory information on the ...
Microarray Scanners are devices used to measure the fluorescent areas of a DNA microarray to reveal information about the simultaneous activity of thousands of genes. This information can help ...
One way they do this is to use a DNA microarray to determine the expression levels of genes. When a gene is expressed in a cell, it generates messenger RNA (mRNA). Overexpressed genes generate ...
Here's an original digital image: And the DNA 'painted' version: It's not just a new artistic format. The miniaturized DNA-based painting approach is a scale-up on microarray technology for studying ...
Expert Rev Mol Diagn. 2013;13(6):601-611. In other situations, normal microarray analysis in the presence of an abnormal karyotype, such as marker chromosomes, is reassuring, as it indicates that ...
Genome instability can cause numerous diseases. Cells have effective DNA repair mechanisms at their disposal. A research team has now gained new insights into the DNA damage response. Whenever ...
In order to keep pace with rapid advancements in protein microarray technology, detection systems have also been significantly improved. Important parameters critical for the success of various ...
