Can I obtain probe, target, consensus/exemplar sequences for GeneChip® probe arrays?

Yes, you can. The Target sequence (the sequence from which probes are selected) information is integrated with the probe set records in the Affymetrix Array Target Sequences databanks.

The Consensus/Exemplar sequences (Consensus sequences are derived from sub- clustering UniGene clusters, and Exemplar sequences refer to the longest member of an Affymetrix sub-cluster) can be obtained from the Affymetrix Array Consensus and Exemplar Sequences databanks. For more information about this process, please read through the Analysis Center Tutorial, Lesson 6.

The probe sequences for the catalog GeneChip® probe arrays are now available. To learn more about the Probe Sequence databanks used in the NetAffx Analysis Center, please review the probe sequence FAQs.
