Virtual karyotype (Genetics 🧬)

Virtual karyotype is the digital information reflecting a karyotype, resulting from the analysis of short sequences of DNA from specific loci all over the genome, which are isolated and enumerated. It detects genomic copy number variations at a higher resolution for level than conventional karyotyping or chromosome-based comparative genomic hybridization. The m...

🔥Excited to announce our latest publication where we describe a method to reuse glycan microarrays using a process of Microwave Assisted Wet-Erase (MAWE)(pronounced Maui).
This method can be used for several types of arrays and can be used to reuse a single slide up to 15 times.
This work should make glycan microarrays more accessible to the glycoscience community.

📢#Glycoscience Community on Mastadon.
Are you attending the Society for Glycobiology meeting in Hawaii? Find us and learn about the work at the NCFG and the Cummings Lab.

1. We are hosting a Satellite meeting on Nov. 5th, entitled: NCFG Tools in Glycoscience, we hope you will be joining us!

2. Come check out our posters at the SFG meeting:
#155, #401, #67, #79, #89, #224, #170, and #225
We have some interesting developments in #glycan #microarrays, #glycomics and other fun stuff!

Mit rotierenden #Microarrays will das österreichische #Biotech-#Startup Cube Dx den #Diagnostik-Markt aufmischen. Ein Ziel, an dem dessen Gründer allerdings schon einmal gescheitert sind. — @realtobiasludwig erzählt, was sie diesmal besser machen (wollen): 👉 https://www.laborjournal.de/editorials/2715.php

but, 20 years ago, #microarrays were a big deal for #dna #biology #genomics #drugs

And I went to the facility for GSK, one of the largest pharma companies in the world, where they had some arrayers running**

anyway, humidity issues, so the vendor solved it with I swear this is true, a pan of water with a hamster wheel run by an electric motor

*I don't know who needs to hear this

**kids, believe it or not, there was a period when people spotted their own arrays onto slides

Did you know you can retrieve annotation and gene expression data from #Bgee and perform #TopAnat analyses in #BioContainers? It's the fashionable way to access curated #GeneExpression 😎
