Q

What’s the most common gene chip technologies? How does it function?

A

Gene array;s ; looks specifically at DNA sequences of interest. Expressive arrays look at gene product s to understand which genes are being expressed in a particular cell type at a particular time. Chromosome Array How function: A test dna is compared to a reference DNA that has a known genetic complement., ID hybridized DNAand flourescent signal.
