Project description:We developed an enrichment-free, metabolic-based assay for rapid detection of tumor cells in the pleural effusion and peripheral blood samples. All nucleated cells are plated on microwell chips that contain 200,000 addressable microwells and then screened the chips. After candidate tumor cells were identified, retrieved single tumor cells with micromanipultor. To detection and analysis molecular characterization of these circulating tumor cells, we performed single cell whole genome amplification with multiple displacement amplification (MDA) technology and whole exome sequencing.
Project description:A cDNA microarray was constructed from the expressed sequence tags (ESTs) of different developmental stages, and comparative genome hybridization based on microarray procedures were carried out. Dermatophyte species are classified into three genera: Epidermophyton, Microsporum, and Trichophyton. To determine the relationship between these three groups comparative genome hybridization were used in our experiment. Trichophyton rubrum genmic DNA was reference DNA and labelled by Cy3 while the other dermatophytes genomic DNA were test DNA and labelled by CY5. Test and reference DNA were co-hybridized with the T. rubrum cDNA microarray and the numbers of genes shared between each species and T. rubrum were determined.

Project description:ChIP experiment was performed with antibody against H3K36me3 (active motif; 61101). we generated genome-wide characterization of H3K36me3 occupancy in E13 H2A.Z cKO forebrain. We found H3K36me3 is decreased throughout the whole genome in E13 H2A.Z cKO forebrain.
