TRADE NEWS: Agilent Technologies Microarrays Enable Baylor Researchers to Discover a Mechanism of Genomic ''Errors'' Associated with Certain Diseases
Published in Medical Devices and Surgical Technology Week, February 3rd, 2008
Researchers at Baylor College of Medicine (BCM), Houston, Texas, have, for the first time, observed a unique way that DNA additions or deletions associated with a wide range of diseases are introduced in genes during cell division. Their findings are published in the current issue of the journal Cell. These types of "errors" have been associated with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Potocki-Lupski Syndrome and other developmental and neurological disorders.
Custom Agilent oligonucleotide comparative genomic hybridization microarrays played a key role in the discovery.
