Whole-transcript (WT) Sense Target Assay for use with GeneChip® Exon and Gene Array Designs

The Affymetrix Whole-transcript Sense Target Labeling Assay is designed to generate unbiased, amplified and biotinylated sense-strand DNA targets from the entire expressed genome. Using the Whole-transcript Assay in combination with GeneChip® Exon 1.0 ST and Gene 1.0 ST Arrays allows you to measure expression across the entire length of a gene, thus offering a more complete and accurate picture of overall gene expression than 3'-based assays.
