abstract

  • Abstract: Background:High-density oligonucleotide microarray is an appropriate technology for genomic analysis, and isparticulary useful in the generation of transcriptional maps, ChIP-on-chip studies and re-sequencing of thegenome.Transcriptome analysis of tiling microarray data facilitates the discovery of novel transcripts and theassessment of differential expression in diverse experimental conditions. Although new technologies such asnext-generation sequencing have appeared, microarrays might still be useful for the study of small genomes or forthe analysis of genomic regions with custom microarrays due to their lower price and good accuracy in expressionquantification.
