DNA Microarrays Ms.ruchi yadav lecturer amity institute of biotechnology amity university lucknow(up)
Gene expression A human organism has over 250 different cell types (e.g., muscle, skin, bone, neuron), most of which have identical genomes, yet they look different and do different jobs It is believed that less than 20% of the genes are‘expressed’ (i.e., making RNA) in a typical cell type Apparently the differences in gene expression is  what makes the cells different

Uses and Applications
Microarrays: Universal Biochemistry Platforms Peptides Proteins Carbohydrates Lipids Small molecules DNA
Some questions for the golden age of genomics How gene expression differs in different cell types? How gene expression differs in a normal and diseased (e.g., cancerous) cell? How gene expression changes when a cell is treated by a drug? How gene expression changes when the organism develops and cells are differentiating? How gene expression is regulated – which genes regulate which and how?
What is a DNA Microarray? (cont.) Biological Samples in 2D Arrays on Membranes or Glass Slides Cheung et al. 1999
What is a DNA Microarray? Also known as DNA Chip Allows simultaneous measurement of the level of transcription for every gene in a genome (gene expression) Microarray detects mRNA, or rather the more stable cDNA
MICROARRAY TYPES
The Colours of a Microarray GREEN  represents  Control DNA , where either DNA or cDNA derived  from normal tissue is hybridized to the target DNA. RED  represents  Sample DNA , where either DNA or cDNA is derived from  diseased tissue hybridized to the target DNA. YELLOW  represents  a combination of Control and Sample DNA , where both hybridized equally to the target DNA. BLACK  represents areas where  neither the Control nor Sample DNA  hybridized to the target DNA.

Microarray Experiment
How do we manufacture a microarray? Start with individual genes, e.g. the ~6,200 genes of the yeast genome Amplify all of them using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) “ Spot” them on a medium, e.g. an ordinary glass microscope slide Each spot is about  100 µm  in diameter Spotting is done by a  robot Complex and potentially expensive task
Robotic spotting
Microarray
DNA Samples on 96 well plates

Microarray
Oligonucleotide Microarray Gene chip (DNA chip, Affymetrix chip): Oligonucleotide (20~80-mer oligos) is synthesized either  in situ (on-chip) Developed at  Affymetrix, Inc. , under the  GeneChip® trademark
Affymetrix Chip Each gene has  16 – 20 pairs of probes synthesized on the chip Each pairs of probes have two oligonucleotide – Perfect match (PM, reference seq) ATG…C…TGC    (20-25 bases) – Mismatch (MM, one base change)  ATG… T …TGC A  MM oligo is identical to a PM oligo except that the  middle nucleotide (13 th  of 25) is intentionally replaced by its complementary nucleotide . The scanned result for a given gene is the  average differences between PM and MM signals, over probes
Different Probe Pairs Represent Different Parts of the Same Gene gene sequence Probes are selected to be specific to the target gene and have good hybridization characteristics.

Affymetrix Chip
The photolithographic method Treat substrate with chemically protected “linker” molecules, creating rectangular array Selectively expose array sites to light deprotects exposed molecules, activating further synthesis Flush chip surface with solution of protected A,C,G,T Binding occurs at previously deprotected sites Repeat steps 2&3 until desired probes are synthesized
Photolithography The mask only allows light to pass to specific features on the chip

Affymetrix chip Photolithographic Approach In-situ synthesis of oligonucleotide
Photolithographic Approach
Patrick Schmid Affymetrix Arrays
Affymetrix GeneChips The black features represent no intensity  (no RNA hybridized to the respective probe in the feature).  The intensity level from lowest to highest by color is:  Dark blue ->  Blue  ->  Light Blue ->  Green  ->  Yellow ->  Orange ->  Red -  > White . More intensity means more RNA bound to a specific feature, which basically means the gene was expressed at a higher level.
Affymetrix GeneChip experiment
Affymetrix GeneChip experiment labeled cRNA  randomly fragmented in to  pieces anywhere from 30 to 400 base pairs in length The fragmented, Biotin-labeled cRNA is added to the array Anywhere on the array where a RNA fragment and a probe are complimentary, the RNA hybridizes to the probes in the feature. The array is then washed to remove any RNA that is not stuck to an array then stained with the fluorescent molecule that sticks to  Biotin (Cy5 conjugated to streptavidin) Lastly, the entire array is scanned with a laser and the information is kept in a computer for quantitative analysis of  what genes were expressed and at what approximate level
in-situ synthesised arrays The different methods for deprotection lead to the three main technologies for making in-situ synthesised arrays: Photodeprotection using masks:  this is the basis of the  Affymetrix® technology. Photodeprotection without masks : this is the method used by  Nimblegen and Febit. Chemical deprotection with synthesis via inkjet technology:  this is the method used by  Rosetta, Agilent and Oxford Gene Technology.

Microarray

  • 1. DNA Microarrays Ms.ruchi yadav lecturer amity institute of biotechnology amity university lucknow(up)
  • 2. Gene expression A human organism has over 250 different cell types (e.g., muscle, skin, bone, neuron), most of which have identical genomes, yet they look different and do different jobs It is believed that less than 20% of the genes are‘expressed’ (i.e., making RNA) in a typical cell type Apparently the differences in gene expression is what makes the cells different
  • 8. Microarrays: Universal Biochemistry Platforms Peptides Proteins Carbohydrates Lipids Small molecules DNA
  • 9. Some questions for the golden age of genomics How gene expression differs in different cell types? How gene expression differs in a normal and diseased (e.g., cancerous) cell? How gene expression changes when a cell is treated by a drug? How gene expression changes when the organism develops and cells are differentiating? How gene expression is regulated – which genes regulate which and how?
  • 10. What is a DNA Microarray? (cont.) Biological Samples in 2D Arrays on Membranes or Glass Slides Cheung et al. 1999
  • 11. What is a DNA Microarray? Also known as DNA Chip Allows simultaneous measurement of the level of transcription for every gene in a genome (gene expression) Microarray detects mRNA, or rather the more stable cDNA
  • 13. The Colours of a Microarray GREEN represents Control DNA , where either DNA or cDNA derived from normal tissue is hybridized to the target DNA. RED represents Sample DNA , where either DNA or cDNA is derived from diseased tissue hybridized to the target DNA. YELLOW represents a combination of Control and Sample DNA , where both hybridized equally to the target DNA. BLACK represents areas where neither the Control nor Sample DNA hybridized to the target DNA.

  • 40. Oligonucleotide Microarray Gene chip (DNA chip, Affymetrix chip): Oligonucleotide (20~80-mer oligos) is synthesized either in situ (on-chip) Developed at Affymetrix, Inc. , under the GeneChip® trademark
  • 41. Affymetrix Chip Each gene has 16 – 20 pairs of probes synthesized on the chip Each pairs of probes have two oligonucleotide – Perfect match (PM, reference seq) ATG…C…TGC (20-25 bases) – Mismatch (MM, one base change) ATG… T …TGC A MM oligo is identical to a PM oligo except that the middle nucleotide (13 th of 25) is intentionally replaced by its complementary nucleotide . The scanned result for a given gene is the average differences between PM and MM signals, over probes
  • 42. Different Probe Pairs Represent Different Parts of the Same Gene gene sequence Probes are selected to be specific to the target gene and have good hybridization characteristics.
  • 43. A Probe Set for Measuring Expression Level of a Particular Gene probe pair gene sequence ...TGCAATGGGTCAGAA G GACTCCTATGTGCCT... AATGGGTCAGAA G GACTCCTATGTG AATGGGTCAGAA C GACTCCTATGTG perfect match sequence mismatch sequence probe set probe cell
  • 45. The photolithographic method Treat substrate with chemically protected “linker” molecules, creating rectangular array Selectively expose array sites to light deprotects exposed molecules, activating further synthesis Flush chip surface with solution of protected A,C,G,T Binding occurs at previously deprotected sites Repeat steps 2&3 until desired probes are synthesized
  • 46. Photolithography The mask only allows light to pass to specific features on the chip
  • 48. Affymetrix chip Photolithographic Approach In-situ synthesis of oligonucleotide
  • 51. Affymetrix GeneChips The black features represent no intensity (no RNA hybridized to the respective probe in the feature). The intensity level from lowest to highest by color is: Dark blue -> Blue -> Light Blue -> Green -> Yellow -> Orange -> Red - > White . More intensity means more RNA bound to a specific feature, which basically means the gene was expressed at a higher level.
  • 53. Affymetrix GeneChip experiment labeled cRNA randomly fragmented in to pieces anywhere from 30 to 400 base pairs in length The fragmented, Biotin-labeled cRNA is added to the array Anywhere on the array where a RNA fragment and a probe are complimentary, the RNA hybridizes to the probes in the feature. The array is then washed to remove any RNA that is not stuck to an array then stained with the fluorescent molecule that sticks to Biotin (Cy5 conjugated to streptavidin) Lastly, the entire array is scanned with a laser and the information is kept in a computer for quantitative analysis of what genes were expressed and at what approximate level
  • 54. in-situ synthesised arrays The different methods for deprotection lead to the three main technologies for making in-situ synthesised arrays: Photodeprotection using masks: this is the basis of the Affymetrix® technology. Photodeprotection without masks : this is the method used by Nimblegen and Febit. Chemical deprotection with synthesis via inkjet technology: this is the method used by Rosetta, Agilent and Oxford Gene Technology.
