This GeneChip array is available through the Affymetrix Made-to-Order Program, which enables you to purchase selected custom array designs and previous-generation GeneChip arrays no longer available as catalog products. Learn more about ordering and support of GeneChip Made-to-Order arrays.
The Affymetrix GeneChip B. subtilis Genome Array is a single array that enables the relative monitoring of mRNA transcripts from approximately 5,000 gene sequences from the bacterium B. subtilis.
The array contains probe sets to interrogate approximately 4,350 ORFs and 600 intergenic regions with an additional 45 control probe sets, and contains probes that are complementary to the labeled 1st strand, cDNA target that is hybridized to the array. For preparing samples for hybridization it is recommended
to use the E. coli Antisense protocol, an experimental protocol available through Affymetrix.
This design was completed as a
custom design for Genencor International, Inc. in June, 1998 and made available broadly in 2002. EST data for the design was from the Bacillus subtilis Genome Sequencing Project of the Institut Pasteur, Release 10.1, December, 1997. Probe sets have been reannotated to the RefSeq genome sequence, NC_000964.
