GeneChip^® Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 Array

The GeneChip® Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 Array is a single array representing approximately 14,000 well-characterized mouse genes that can be used to explore biology and disease processes. New, reduced feature size means that you can use smaller sample volumes than the previous Mouse Expression Array 430A without compromising performance.

Provides coverage of well-substantiated genes in the transcribed mouse genome on a single array
Analyzes the expression level of approximately 14,000 well-characterized mouse genes
The Power of the Probe Set - offering multiple independent measurements for each transcript delivering the greatest accuracy and reproducibility of any microarray platform
All probe sets represented on the GeneChip® Mouse Expression Array 430A are included on the GeneChip Mouse Genome 430A 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 107, June 2002) and then refined by analysis and comparison with the publicly available draft assembly of the mouse genome from the Whitehead Institute for Genome Research (MGSC, April 2002).

Instrument and Software Requirements

Note: NetAffx annotation files are intended for use in automated analysis. Some are not compatible with all spreadsheet applications. Please use the NetAffx Analysis Center to limit download data to your probe sets of interest. Annotation CSV files for the exon arrays are split into a probe set-level annotation file and a transcript cluster-level annotation file; exon array CSV files are compatible with ExACT.
