Mendelian disorders are most commonly caused by mutations identifiable by DNA sequencing. Exonic deletions and duplications can go undetected by sequencing, and their frequency in most Mendelian ...
The frequency of disease-related large rearrangements (referred to as copy-number mutations, CNMs) varies among genes, and search for these mutations has an important place in diagnostic strategies.
Comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) is used to compare the genetic material from a test individual, such as a leukemia patient, to that of a reference 'normal' individual (usually DNA pooled from ...
Array comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) is illuminating DNA copy number variations (CNV) throughout the genome to diagnose disease etiology and to help tailor treatment regimens for patients to ...
Due to its higher resolution, oligo array CGH has recently made strong inroads in the cytogenetic lab. It’s not surprising. With an increased sensitivity of more than 1,000-fold, microarrays can ...
Agilent Technologies Inc. has announced that scientists using an Agilent custom-designed comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) array have sequenced the entire gene map of a Korean male. An ...
