Fundamentals
Genomics involves the study of genes and their function. Genomics aims to understand the structure of the genome, including gene mapping, DNA sequencing, and exploring the molecular mechanisms and the interplay of genetic and environmental factors in organisms.
Transcriptomics is the study of transcriptomes, the complete set of RNA transcripts produced by the genome at any one time. It is specifically focused on how transcript patterns are affected by development, disease, or environmental factors such as hormones, drugs, etc.
Services
Our service integrates different technologies:
- SEQUENCING: Capillary electrophoresis 3500 Genetic Analyzer for Sanger sequencing and Ion Torrent PGM for next-generation sequencing applications.
- MICROARRAYS: Agilent microarrays for RNA and miRNA measurements.
- qPCR: ABI 7900HT real-time PCR instrument.
Our Genomics & Transcriptomics facilities offer service from single gen to genome-wide analysis for standard and next generation sequencing, genotyping, quantitative PCR, and full Agilent microarrays processing.
