Specific genomic enrichment methods, represented by Erin Boyle, based on an idea by Thomas Albert. The image of DNA fragments was drawn on a microarray by spotting 4 oligonucleotides according to the image pattern (the oligonucleotides were identical to the oligonucleotide later hybridized to the array, except for increasing number of mismatches, corresponding to different shades of grey in the black and white image) (courtesy of Thomas Albert, NimbleGen Systems).
