Applied Biosystems™ GeneChip™ CHO Gene 2.1 ST Array Strip

Applied Biosystems™ GeneChip™ CHO Gene 2.1 ST Array Strip

The Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell lines were introduced in the 1960-s and has become an extremely important tool for biomedical research biopharmaceutical manufacturing. Their rapid growth, stable gene expression profiles and high protein production makes them ideal for both research studies and for the production of therapeutic proteins.

To help further your research and improve manufacture yield, we have introduced the CHO Gene 2.1 ST Array Strip, with an expression array design that provides the highest coverage of the transcribed genome. We use a comprehensive collection of information sources to design probes that interrogate up to 23 unique sequences of each transcript. This design strategy provides you with the ability to evaluate whole-transcriptome gene expression at the gene and exon levels, which allows the study of transcript variants and alternative splicing events.

Features

• Whole-transcript analysis the capture of transcript isoforms you may miss with 3--biased expression designs
• Comprehensive transcriptome coverage provides the best opportunity to discover interesting biology:

   - >21,000 protein coding transcripts

   - >19,000 Entrez genes

• Measure alternative splicing events/transcript variants with probes designed to maximize coverage of exons
• Reproducible: Signal correlation coefficient ≥0.99
