Glyco-gene Microarray Assay

Glyco-gene microarray is a focused oligonucleotide microarray containing all of the cloned glyco-genes. It is high throughout technique to screen and detect the changes of transcription and expression levels of the glycan related genes such as glycan-binding proteins, glycosyltransferases, glycosylhydrolases, carbohydrate transporters, etc. It allows the analysis of RNA samples on a highly annotated custom gene microarray. The glyco-gene microarray is developed using Affymetrix technology. It contains probe sets to monitor the expression of approximately 2000 human and mouse transcripts and can also be custom-designed.

The construction of glyco-gene microarray is similar to that of regular gene microarray. The representative glyco-genes compiled from currently available sequence database are selected and used for the microarray. Individual 59-mer oligonucleotides complementary to sequences selected are designed and prioritized using stringent selection criteria, including minimal secondary structure, minimal homology to other genes in the available human genomic databases, no low complexity or repeat regions, and all with a similar and well-defined Tm to provide optimal hybridization efficiency across all oligos on the micoarray. These optimal oligonucleotides are individually synthesized with the addition of a linker onto each oligonucleotide and then printed covalently linked in glass slides. The target RNA are extracted and labeled with fluorescence probes, followed by hybridization to each spot on the microarray. The results are quantitated by a high resolution confocal laser scanner. With glyco-gene microarray technology, it is possible to measure all of genes associated with glycoconjugate biosynthesis and degradation simultaneously.

From Our Clients

"I recently used their proteomics service for a project analyzing protein interactions in yeast models. The team was very responsive and helped clarify the methodology they employed, which made me feel confident in the results. The data quality was solid, with clear identification of several key proteins involved in our study. Their thorough analysis enabled me to pinpoint specific interactions that I hadn't considered before, which significantly improved the direction of my research. I appreciate their professionalism and support throughout the process."

Sarah Thompson, University of California, Berkeley

"Our lab collaborated with them on a project studying cancer biomarkers. The proteomics analysis provided was detailed and focused, specifically highlighting the differential expression of proteins between healthy and tumor samples. Their clear explanations of the data helped my team understand the biological implications. I also appreciated their willingness to revise the reports based on our feedback, ensuring that we had everything we needed for our publication. This collaborative spirit was invaluable."

Emily Rodriguez, Stanford University

"Our lab worked with them on a project studying the effects of diet on gut microbiota using proteomics. They used a label-free quantification method to analyze proteins in fecal samples before and after dietary intervention. The results showed significant changes in protein expression linked to microbial activity. This was pivotal for our hypothesis about diet-microbiota interactions. The clarity of their data presentation made it easy for our team to integrate these findings into our ongoing research."

Dr. Lisa Wong, University of Toronto

"My experience with Creative Proteomics during the mass spectrometry analysis was excellent. We sent in human saliva and mouse brain tissue samples, which they expertly analyzed using both LC-MS and GC-MS techniques. The results were invaluable, revealing key metabolites in the saliva and identifying biomarkers linked to brain function in the brain tissue."

Dr. Emily Carter, Senior Research Scientist

"The overall service from Creative Proteomics was outstanding. They made the entire process seamless and efficient, allowing us to focus on our research. We worked with leaf and root samples from various Arabidopsis genotypes for targeted metabolomics analysis. Their thorough profiling of primary and secondary metabolites gave us important insights into how the plants respond metabolically to environmental stress."

Dr. Laura Henderson, Plant Physiologist

"We had a pleasant collaboration with Creative Proteomics on mass spectrometry analysis of lipids. They conducted a detailed analysis of lipid species, providing us with important insights into lipid metabolism and its relationship with metabolic syndrome disease states."

Dr. Sarah Mitchell, Research Scientist
