In each type of cell, like a muscle cell or a skin cell, different genes are expressed (turned on) or silenced (turned off). If the cells that are turned on mutate, they could—depending on what role ...

The main application of microarrays is gene expression analysis, but other uses for these arrays continue to grow in popularity. Laura Bonetta reports on the use of this technology to analyze other ...

Microarray Technology evolved from the initial report in the mid 1970s that labeled nucleic acids could be used to monitor the expression of nucleic acid molecules attached to a solid support occurred ...

A protein microarray consists of the immobilization of proteins in organized rows and columns upon a support structure. The structure of the protein microarray allows for high-throughput analysis of ...

The use of relative expression ratios from microarray hybridization experiments hinders comparison of different experimental conditions and does not indicate absolute expression levels. In the May 28 ...
