Clone several, using one known to work to find orthologsUse sequence to design primers to clone cDNA
Sequencing Genomes1) Map the genome2) Prepare an AC library3) Order the library
4) Subdivide each AC into lambda contigs
5) Subdivide each lambda into plasmids
6) sequence the plasmids
Using the genomeStudying expression of all genes simultaneouslyMicroarrays (reverse Northerns)•Attach probes that detect genes to solid support
Using the genomeStudying expression of all genes simultaneouslyMicroarrays (reverse Northerns)•Attach probes that detect genes to solid support•cDNA or oligonucleotides
Using the genomeStudying expression of all genes simultaneouslyMicroarrays (reverse Northerns)•Attach probes that detect genes to solid support•cDNA or oligonucleotides•Tiling path = probes for entire genome

•Hybridize with labeled targets
Microarrays•Attach cloned genes to solid support•Hybridize with labeled targets•Measure amount of target bound to each probe
MicroarraysMeasure amount of probe bound to each cloneUse fluorescent dye : can quantitate light emitted
MicroarraysCompare amounts of mRNA in different tissues or treatments by labeling each “target” with a different dye
Using the genomeStudying expression of all genes simultaneously1.Microarrays: “reverse Northerns”• Fix probes to slide at known locations, hyb with
labeled targets, then analyze data
Using the genomeStudying expression of all genes simultaneously1.Microarrays: “reverse Northerns”2.High-throughput sequencing
