Big in arrays - and not only for expression!
Affymetrix GeneChip Arrays consists of 500,000 cells, where each probe cell contains millions of copies of a specific oligonucleotide probe.
Affymetrix GeneTitan platform
The Affymetrix GeneTitan instrument is a fully automated multi-channel genotyping and gene expression platform. It is flexibility from 16-, 24- to 96-array layouts for gene expression as well as 96- or 384-genotyping array layouts.
Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner 3000 7G platform
This platform can analyse many different cartridge based arrays: high density arrays, including SNP arrays with up to 900,000 SNPs, expression arrays for transcription and all-exon arrays for whole-genome analysis.

Expression
Expression is the measurement of the activity of thousands of genes at once, to create a global picture of cellular function. These profiles can, for example, distinguish between cells that are actively dividing or show how the cells react to a particular treatment.
The Affymetrix expression arrays are used for a wide application range:
Affymetrix has pioneered expression microarray technology by producing the first “gold standard” for whole genome transcriptomics (U133plus2.0). Affymetrix offers a range of whole transcript arrays for human and model organisms. The different arrays can detect a variety of transcript isoforms:
- Presumed standard transcripts
- Transcripts with undefined 3’ end
- Non-polyadenylated messages
- Truncated transcripts
- Alternate polyadenylation sites
- Degraded samples
- Genomic deletions
- Alternative splicing
- Alternative 5’ start site
Most commonly used arrays:
Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array: First and most comprehensive whole human genome expression array. The majority of sequence clusters were created from the UniGene database (Build 133, April 20, 2001). There are 9,921 new probe sets representing approximately 6,500 new genes selected from GenBank, dbEST, and RefSeq.
Human Gene 2.0 (or 1.0) ST Array: The whole-transcript coverage of these arrays provides the most accurate, sensitive and comprehensive measurement of protein coding and long intergenic non-coding RNA transcripts. This design provides a complete expression profile of mRNA as well as the intermediary lincRNA transcripts that impact the mRNA expression profile.
Human Transcriptome Array 2.0: These arrays give the ability to go beyond gene-level expression profiling by providing the coverage and accuracy required to detect all known transcript isoforms produced by a gene.
GeneChip® miRNA 4.0 Array: GeneChip® miRNA Arrays are powerful tools for studying the role of small non-coding RNA (miRNA, snoRNA, and scaRNA) and their importance in cancer and other diseases.
Expression arrays are also available for various other species like mouse, rat, bovine, chicken, canine, maize, porcine, rice, wheat, yeast and many more.

Affymetrix –Big in arrays - Not only expression!
The Affymetrix genotyping arrays on the GeneTitan instrument (Axiom array plates) and the GeneChip Scanner 3000 7G System (cartridge arrays) can be used for a variety of questions - for a few and for a lot of samples, from targeted to genome-wide applications, for SNPs and copy number variations.
Array-based genotyping is used for association studies, linkage analysis, identification of haplotypes and much more. You can send almost all sample material! Find here a selection of pre-designed genotyping arrays.
