Expression Profiling Using Affymetrix GeneChip Microarrays.
The approximately 25,000 genes in mammalian genomes can be transcribed at different levels. Measurements of gene expression for ten thousands of genes in parallel give the most comprehensive picture of steady-state levels of transcripts and is used in basic and applied research. Microarrays are the most frequently used technology for genome-wide expression profiling; from the various available ...

Imagine that you get such certain awesome experience and knowledge by only reading a book. How can? It seems to be greater when a book can be the best thing to discover. Books now will appear in printed and soft file collection. One of them is this book gene expression studies using affymetrix microarrays. It is so usual with the printed books. However, many people sometimes have no space to br...
متن کاملPLANdbAffy: probe-level annotation database for Affymetrix expression microarrays
Standard Affymetrix technology evaluates gene expression by measuring the intensity of mRNA hybridization with a panel of the 25-mer oligonucleotide probes, and summarizing the probe signal intensities by a robust average method. However, in many cases, signal intensity of the probe does not correlate with gene expression. This could be due to the hybridization of the probe to a transcript of a...
متن کاملShort oligonucleotide probes containing G-stacks display abnormal binding affinity on Affymetrix microarrays
MOTIVATION In microarray experiments, probe design is critical to the specific and accurate measurement of target concentrations. Current designs select suitable probes through in silico scanning of transcriptome/genome based on first principles. However, due to lack of tools, the observed microarray data have not been used to assess the performance of individual probes to provide feedback to i...
متن کاملNormalized Affymetrix expression data are biased by G-quadruplex formation
Probes with runs of four or more guanines (G-stacks) in their sequences can exhibit a level of hybridization that is unrelated to the expression levels of the mRNA that they are intended to measure. This is most likely caused by the formation of G-quadruplexes, where inter-probe guanines form Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds, which probes with G-stacks are capable of forming. We demonstrate that for a ...
