Positive Controls Printed
|
|
On all Mouse,Rat & Human subarrays:
|
Operon positive 70 mer control, actin, S19 ribosomal protein or 28S rRNA, & genomic DNA
|
|
On all M.tuberculosis:
|
subarrays:Operon positive 70mer control, Sig Factor A, 16s rRNA, & genomic DNA
|
|
Negative Controls Printed
|
|
Operon negative 70 mer controls
|
|
SSC Printing: salt spots w/o DNA
|
|
Blanks: no salt or DNA
|
|
Hybridization & Normalization Controls:
|
|
3 B.subtilis genes printed & cRNAs synthesized- for Reverse transcription, cDNA synthesis and hybridization
controls
|
|
Post Printing: Verification
|
|
Within each array, each subarray will have a common pattern of positive, negative, and salt controls for rapid visual orientation.
|
|
Each array design has a unique pattern of controls: mouse 1, mouse 2, M.tuberculosis, Mouse 3, Human 3 and Rat 1.1.
|
|
Hybridization of random flurescent 9mer to view spot morphology and verify that all features printed.
|
|
Hybridize anti-sense fluorescent 70 mer targets, complimentary to specific mouse 70 mer probes, to prove accurate subarray.
|
printing and verify selected probe sequences.
