The analysis of gene expression is being studied using microarray, quantitative-pcr, RNA-seq, and nanostring. These resources include:
Amby001: A custom Affymetrix GeneChip© with approximately 4500 perfect and mismatch probesets. Library Files Probe Annotation File (Original) Probe Annotations (Updated)
Amby002: A custom Affymetrix GeneChip© with approximately 20,000 perfect probesets. For more information, contact your local Affymetrix representative with the array name (AMBY_002a520748F) and part number - 520748. Library Files Probe Annotation File
Nanostring Codesets: The N-Counter is a gene expression analysis system that uses gene-specific capture and reporter probes. Code-set designs are listed for a growing collection of genes……
Q-PCR: A list of qPCR primers designed for Ambystoma genes.
RNA-Seq: Coming soon.
