European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), Heidelberg, Germany September 29 - October 6, 2001 Preliminary Content and Topics of the Course: The DNA microarray is a versatile tool for the experimental exploration of genome structure, gene expression patterns, gene function, the biology of cells and whole organisms. Practical work will include: - Preparation of DNA samples and slides for the printing, spotting, attachment and hybridisation of DNA on microarray slides - Design and realisation of experiments for analysis by DNA microarrays - Detection, processing, analysis, display and interpretation of hybridisation data Experimental applications to be covered in the course will include studies of global gene expression programs, inferring gene function using microarrays, genotyping, and measuring changes in gene copy number. ° Production of DNA microarrays Sample preparation of RNA Surface attachment of oligonucleotides and cDNA Spotting of hybridisation arrays: Hybridisation protocols ° Microarray spotting systems Droplet spotting system Pin spotting systems Other spotting and arraying techniques ° Detection technology and systems for microarrays Confocal scanning systems CCD imaging systems Other detection methods (chemiluminescence, radioactive, mass spectrometry etc.) ° DNA microarray analysis Acquisition, image processing and analysis of DNA microarrays Quantitation of hybridization signals Visualisation and representation of expression data Interpretation of datasets Bioinformatic tools and data bases for expression analysis ° Application of DNA microarrays Functional genome analysis Differential gene expression Genotyping and SNP analysis Diagnostics, mutation detection and other medical applications |
