Expression Profiling with Microarrays

35.4K
Microarrays are important tools for profiling gene expression, and are based on complementary binding between probes that are attached to glass chips and nucleic acids derived from samples. Using these arrays, scientists can simultaneously evaluate the expression of thousands of genes. In addition, the expression profiles of different cells or tissue types can be compared, allowing researchers to deduce how the expression of different genes change during biological processes, and thus gain...

    Area of Science:

    • Molecular Biology
    • Genomics
    • Biotechnology

    Background:

    • Competitive hybridization is key for microarray analysis, similar to Southern blotting.
    • Two-color hybridization (Cy3 and Cy5) is an advancement for massively multiplexed microarrays.
    • This method allows control for hybridization intensity factors like nucleotide count and oligonucleotide melting temperature (Tm).

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a straightforward protocol for two-color hybridization on microarrays.
    • To enable accurate quantification and analysis of biological phenomena, such as gene expression.
    • To detail transcript structure analysis using microarray technology.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizes a two-color hybridization scheme with Cy3- and Cy5-labeled nucleic acids.
    • Incorporates a 'cold' (nonfluorescent) blocking nucleotide to optimize hybridization.
    • Involves overnight hybridization followed by washing and scanning of the microarray.

    Main Results:

    • The two-color approach provides a reliable method for controlling hybridization intensity.
    • Enables quantitative analysis of differences in spot intensity on microarrays.
    • Facilitates the assessment of biological changes like gene expression and transcript structure.

    Conclusions:

    • The described protocol offers a robust method for microarray-based gene expression and transcript structure analysis.
    • Two-color hybridization significantly enhances the accuracy and reliability of microarray data.
    • This technique is valuable for understanding complex biological processes at the molecular level.
