The GeneChip Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array is a single array representing 14,500 well-characterized human genes that can be used to explore human biology and disease processes. New design and reduced feature size mean that you can use smaller sample volumes than the previous HG-U133A Array without compromising performance.
Provides coverage
of well-substantiated genes in the transcribed human genome on a single
array
Analyzes the
expression level of 18,400 transcripts and variants, including 14,500 well-characterized
human genes
Comprised of
more than 22,000 probe sets and 500,000 distinct oligonucleotide features
Use the Power
of the Probe Set and get multiple independent measurements for each transcript that deliver
the greatest accuracy and reproducibility of any microarray platform
All probe sets
represented on the GeneChip Human Genome U133A Array are identically replicated
on the GeneChip Human Genome U133A 2.0 Array
Array Profile
Sequences used in the design of the array were selected from GenBank®, dbEST, and RefSeq. The sequence clusters were created from the UniGene database (Build 133, April 20, 2001) and then were refined by analysis and comparison with a number of other publicly available databases including the Washington University EST trace repository and the University of California, Santa Cruz Golden-Path human genome database (April 2001 release).
