Abstract:
As a result of genomics initiatives worldwide, it has become increasingly easy to obtain cDNA clones representing the 3 ends of many human genes. This unit describes methods that allow these clones to be used as hybridization detectors in a highly parallel assay of gene expression. Protocols are provided for preparing cDNA microarrays, extracting RNA from cells of interest and preparing fluorescently labeled cDNA representations of the message pools, and hybridizing the labeled cDNAs to the microarrays.
