Comprehensive Genomic Analysis – Complementing Sequencing with High-Resolution CNV Detection

26 Feb 2014

This white paper discusses the role of these molecular arrays as part of their complete investigation framework, and how such an integrated approach presents the next stage of molecular testing in clinical genetics research. To provide real-world examples, this approach is also be discussed in the context of two case studies.

CytoSure™ Molecular Arrays

Oxford Gene Technology Ltd

Reliable detection of copy number changes for research into a range of genetic disorders. CytoSure Molecular Arrays are designed to accurately identify small intragenic copy number variations (CNVs) in genes associated with a variety of disorders. The content for each array has been designed and optimised in collaboration with leading molecular genetics experts at Emory University. In addition to pre-designed catalogue arrays, you can also utilise our extensive array design expertise to produce custom arrays matching your precise specifications.CytoSure™ Molecular Arrays Features: Accurate detection of copy number variation — a perfect complement to sequencing analysis Array content fully optimised and research-validated by Emory University Flexible array content and formats — create the ideal array for your needs Cost-effective processing — multiple molecular disorders can be included in a single array Easy data interpretation using optimised protocols and industry-leading CytoSure Interpret Software

Genome AnalysisGenomics, the study of genomes, includes functional genomics, evolutionary genomics and comparative genomics. There are many genomic technologies such as DNA sequencing of whole genomes, computational biology and bioinformatics. DNA and nucleic acids must be isolated and concentrated from cells for analysis with kits, automated analyzers and software. Other useful technologies for studying genomics include PCR, microarrays and electrophoresis.Clinical GeneticsMolecular Genetics covers the analysis of hereditary genetic disease and chromosomal abnormalities. Genetics can be analysed using DNA, RNA, and protein microarrays, PCR, RT PCR and DNA sequencing. Genetic equipment includes genetic workstations, thermal cyclers, cooling blocks and electrophoresis products. Diagnostic kits are used for DNA / RNA extraction and purification.
