Chapter 15.5, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
The eukaryotic genome is made of one or more linear DNA chromosomes. The genome of eukaryotes contains coding as well as non-coding DNA sequences. The coding sequence of genes encode for proteins. Varying amount of repetitive DNA is also present in the eukaryotic genome. In the genome of plants and mammals, the repetitive DNA is present in most of the regions.

Experiment A microarray was hybridized with a mixture of two differentially labeled fluorescent cDNAs, one prepared using retinal RNA of 1-day-old mice (labeled with a green fluorescent dye) and the other prepared using retinal RNA of 28-day-old mice (red fluorescence). The two probes were prepared from identical amounts of retinal tissues and were mixed together for hybridization to the microarray. Unhybridized probes were washed away, and the microarray was photographed in a fluorescence microscope.
