Gene Expression

Roche NimbleGen provides a unique combination of high-density arrays, long-oligo probes, and flexible design capability that together provide superior results for advanced gene expression analysis. NimbleGen microarrays enable accurate, sensitive, and specific interrogation of genome-wide expression for any sequenced and annotated genome. Researchers also can tile through a genome at any desired spacing to discover genome-wide expression activity in both coding and noncoding regions and map transcripts with unparalleled accuracy. NimbleGen microarrays and services for both prokaryotic and eukaryotic genomes are the gene expression platform of choice as evidenced by a growing list of scientific publications.
