Numerical modeling of DNA-chip hybridization with chaotic advection.
We present numerical simulations of DNA-chip hybridization, both in the "static" and "dynamical" cases. In the static case, transport of free targets is limited by molecular diffusion; in the dynamical case, an efficient mixing is achieved by chaotic advection, with a periodic protocol using pumps in a rectangular chamber. This protocol has been shown to achieve rapid and homogeneous mixing. We...
متن کاملErgodicity, mixing and the Bernoulli property in a DNA hybridization mi- croarray
Microarrays are important devices in biochemical analysis and are an essential tool for gene discovery and mapping, gene regulation studies, disease diagnosis, and drug discovery and toxicology. A DNA microarray is constructed from DNA strands that are attached to a glass or silicon immobile surface. The array is placed in a hybridization chamber containing a solution of DNA or mRNA which is ta...
متن کاملSequencing by hybridization in the presence of hybridization errors.
DNA sequencing is a very important problem in genomics. Several different sequencing methods are currently utilized. One promising method uses a sequencing chip to obtain information about the presence of subsequences in DNA. This paper deals with sequencing of hybridization data from a sequencing chip, called Sequencing by Hybridization (SBH). Preparata et al. proposed a new sequencing chip us...
متن کاملAbnormal mixing of passive scalars in chaotic flows.
We study the relaxation of a passive scalar towards the uniform equilibrium distribution in an advection-diffusion problem where the phase space for the pure advection problem is a mixture of chaotic domains and elliptic islands. Since the advection-diffusion problem is linear, the relaxation can be characterized by the eigenvalues and eigenmodes of the evolution operator. Almost degenerate eig...
متن کاملDNA microarray analysis in endometriosis for development of more effective targeted therapies.
Microarray technology has become a widely used tool for analyzing the expression of tens of thousands of genes simultaneously on high-density microarrays in a single experiment, together with the availability of the complete nucleotide sequence of the human genome. DNA microarray technologies are powerful tools in the laboratory setting for scientific research, hypothesis generation, and the pr...
