DGRC-2: Spotted oligonucleotide transcriptome microarrays for the Drosophila community

The Drosophila Genomics Resource Center (DGRC) provides the research community with access to genomics resources including microarrays. The first generation transcriptome microarrays fabricated by the DGRC (DGRC-1 arrays) are spotted with amplified DNA fragments. The DNA fragments are amplified from genomic DNA template by polymerase chain reaction using gene-specific primers. The primers were designed against release 1 of the
