Quality and Replication of Microarray Studies

چکیده
Quality assessment of DNA microarrays uses different spot parameters that contain complete information to describe each microarray and detect corrupted spots. Images obtained through replication should result in improved quality as measured according to parameters. We propose methods to determine the number of replicates required to achieve a certain level of quality, and present an application to the parameter known as Background.

متن کاملAnalysis of Gene Expression, Signaling Pathways, and Interaction Networks of Some Effective Genes in Patients with Asthma in Microarray Studies Using R Software
Background and purpose: Asthma is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways caused by a combination of complex environmental and genetic interactions. There is an incomplete understanding of this mechanism which affect both severity of the disease and how it responds to treatment. Different gene expressions are reported in patients with asthma and healthy controls. Materials and methods:...
متن کاملNear-sigmoid Modeling to Simultaneously Profile Genome-wide DNA Replication Timing and Efficiency in Single DNA Replication Microarray Studies
DNA replication is a key process in cell division cycle. It is initiated in coordinated manner in several species. To understand the DNA replication in a species one needs to measure the half replication timing (or replication timing) and the efficiency of replication which vary across genome in higher eukaryotes. In the previous studies, no direct assessment of replication efficiency on a geno...
متن کاملMicrosatellite (SSR) amplification by PCR usually led to polymorphic bands: Evidence which shows replication slippage occurs in extend or nascent DNA strands
Microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are very effective molecular markers in population genetics, genome mapping, taxonomic study and other large-scale studies. Variation in number of tandem repeats within microsatellite refers to simple sequence length polymorphism (SSLP); but there are a few studies that are showed SSRs replication slippage may be occurred during in vitro amplifi...
متن کاملCellular SRC kinases and dsRNA dependent protein kinase (PKR) play key role in intracellular viral (CVB3) replication
SRC kinases and PKR are intracellular protein kinases, which play key roles in intracellular viral replication. In this research, the effect of SRC kinase inhibition and PKR activation and inhibition on replication of coxsakievirus (CVB3), an entrovirus of the family picornaviridae – causative agents of fatal myocarditis, was studied. Vero and Hela cells were cultured and infected with CVB3 in ...
