Gene centre chips in with better route to microarrays
Alison Abbott
Biologists who make their own DNA microarrays, rather than relying on expensive commercial chips, should now be able to do a better do-it-yourself job, thanks to a set of human DNA clones made available by the German Genome Resource Centre (RZPD) in Berlin.Microarrays are increasingly being used by researchers interested in gene expression, allowing them to compare the activity of thousands of genes in, for example, cancerous and non-cancerous tissues.
