Array-based experiments aim to simultaneously ... annotations and physical DNA resources for the genes of an organism (Box 1). Following hybridization and readout of relative expression levels ...

A DNA microarray is a small manufactured chip ... The amount of raw data returned in a single microarray hybridization experiment is enormous; unfortunately, it cannot be directly compared to ...

The cDNA binds to complementary base pairs in each of the spots on the array, a process known as hybridization. Based on how the DNA binds together ... (In your experiment these spots will ...

This immobilizes the DNA fragments, allowing specific sequences to be identified by hybridization with single-stranded probes ... This was performed in your first lab – the phage plates you will be ...
