| DIRP Microarray Core Facility - Available Slone Sets
The NHGRI is actively involved
in adding new clones to their chips, and the following
information represents the information pertaining
to the number of sequence verified clones contained
on the clone sets in the first quarter of 2002.
|
Human
Array |
The
human standard chip contains over 13, 000 human sequence
verified clones (~ 9,500 are functionally known or characterized
genes, ~ 3,000 are genes whose open reading frame and
protein sequence are known), The average clone size
is around 1 kb and the majority of the clones represent
the 3' end of the genes. Furthermore, the core will
be processing another 15,000 genes representing mostly
ESTs with the highest level of expression and tissue
distribution. |
Mouse
Array |
The
Mm Array contains over 20,000 genes that represent over
15,000 mouse clusters in the Unigene data base. (There
are about 5,000 redundant clusters with different clones)
Please note that researchers
are encouraged to re-sequence any clone of interest
before any validation or down stream experiments. There
is an average of 5% mismatch in the sequence verified
