The Tulane Genetics/Genomics Core Laboratory
Tulane Microarray Core offers a broad set of applications designed to meet your specific research needs using the Agilent Microarray Platform:
• Explore gene transcription on a genome-wide basis across a variety of model systems. Whether conducting basic research, identifying new drug targets or discovering biomarkers.
Comparative Genomic Hybridization (oligo aCGH)
• Conduct high-resolution, genome-wide profi ling of DNA copy number changes associated with cancer and other genetic diseases.
Chromatin Immunoprecipitation (ChIP-on-chip)
• Elucidate the role that protein-DNA interactions play in processes such as transcription, replication, modification and repair and explore these phenomena on a global scale.
Other Services can be developed at your request including identifying alternative splice forms, methylation changes across the genome, and microRNA’s (miRNA’s) profile.
Tulane Genetics Core offers a broad range of comprehensive genetic services including:
• Chromosome analysis of blood, bone marrow, tissues, and cell lines.
Molecular Cytogenetic Studies
• Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH) on metaphase chromosomes, interphase nuclei, and paraffin embedded tissues.
