Individuals from whom we had collected cryopreserved lymphocyte, drinking-water, and either toenail or urine samples were candidates for the microarray project.
The NCI60 Cancer Microarray project described a high expression level of the endothelin receptor type B (ENRB) in skin melanoma (Ross et al, 2000), and Demunter et al (2001) reported evidence for its role as a tumour progression marker in this tumour type.
Many differentially expressed genes were annotated as enzymes likely to be relevant to digestion or metabolism, or their expression had previously been mapped specifically to larval or adult midgut by the Fly Atlas microarray project (Chintapalli et al., 2007).
These samples were primarily from the UCLA normal tissue microarray project (Chen, Day and Nelson, unpublished).
From the Arabidopsis Functional Genomics Consortium (AFGC) microarray project data collection, we also selected six cDNA studies for cross-platform compatibility benchmarking.
Furthermore, we have initiated a pineapple microarray project and it is anticipated that gene expression data will be incorporated into the online pineapple bioinformatics resource in the future.
Overview of NHGRI's microarray project Paul Meltzer's home page An introduction to neural networks.
But working on a microarray project requires a collaboration of experts from different fields--especially for someone like me, who wanted to use microarray analysis on two quite different models.
A collaborative microarray project (based on Affymetrix ATH1 arrays), dubbed AtGenExpress, has utilized 79 different Arabidopsis samples in triplicate to generate expression data [29], [30].
Our study mined data from a microarray project to find a total of 883 genes that showed a significant difference in expression between the sexes before the completion of sexual differentiation.
