DNA Microarray Preparation • DNA microarrays are typically composed of thousands of DNA sequences, called probes, fixed to a glass or silicon substrate. The DNA sequences can be long (500-1500bp) cDNA sequences or shorter (25-70 mer) oligonucleotide sequences. Oligonucleotide sequences can be presynthesized and deposited with a pin or piezoelectric spray or synthesized in situ by photolithographic or ink-jet technologies. • Relative quantitative detection of gene expression or gene copy number can be carried out between two samples on one array or by single samples comparing multiple arrays. • Double-fluorescent technique uses samples from two sources that are labeled with different fluorescent molecules (Cy3 and Cy5, or Alexa 555 and Alexa 647) and hybridized together on the same array. 6

Input and Output of Microarray Data Analysis • Input: Laser image scans (data) and underlying experiment hypotheses or experiment designs (prior knowledge) • Output: — Conclusions about the input hypotheses or knowledge about statistical behavior of measurements 7 — The theory of biological systems learnt automatically from data (machine learning perspective) – Model fitting, Inference process
