To test the usefulness of the mtGDPs for in vivo gene expression analysis, we asked whether the mtGDPs can be used for labeling bacterial RNA when mixed with mammalian RNA (extracted from activated ...

Oligonucleotide microarray (DNA chip)–based hybridization analysis is a promising new technology which potentially allows rapid and cost–effective screens for all possible mutations and sequence ...

Nature uses a common framework when building organisms as different as yeast, worms, fruit flies, mice, and humans. This makes it possible for scientists to learn about how our own genes work by ...

Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) was developed to identify pathogenic DNA copy-number changes (e.g., duplications, deletions) on a genome-wide scale, and to map these changes to genomic ...

A new tool for investigating the rice genome has been developed by researchers at UC Davis led by Pamela Ronald, professor of plant pathology. The inexpensive, publicly-available rice DNA microarray ...

Chief technology officer Don Montgomery explains that CombiMatrix's system synthesizes oligonucleotide probes directly on the chip through electrochemical methods. As a result, no mechanical parts are ...

A standard Internet protocol that checks errors made during email transmissions has now inspired a revolutionary method to transform DNA microarray analysis, a common technology used to understand ...
