GeneChip miRNA Array
The GeneChip® miRNA Array is a powerful tool for studying the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) and their importance in cancer and other diseases.
The GeneChip® miRNA Array is a powerful tool for studying the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) and their importance in cancer and other diseases. In addition, miRNA studies facilitate the discovery of biomarkers and disease signatures.
Non-coding RNAs are emerging as a major component of the regulatory circuitry that underlies the development and physiology of complex organisms. miRNAs are small, single-stranded RNAs that regulate gene expression by partial complementary base pairing to specific mRNAs. This annealing inhibits protein translation and in some cases facilitates the degradation of mRNA.
The GeneChip miRNA Array also includes human small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs and scaRNAs), which are short, non-translated RNAs that play a role in processing of ribosomal RNAs following transcription. snoRNAs have also been implicated in the regulation of alternative splicing.
