Microarray Analysis
Data analysis tools

Technical requirement: PC, microsoft excel 2003 or later and The .NET Frameword 1.1 Framework

Note: the framework can be downloaded at the microsoft update website or www.microsoft.com/downloads

Methylobacterium extorquens AM1 gene conversion tables:

RMQ numbers used for original microarrays from Ergo 2002 draft genome versus updated RMQ numbers from Ergo 2007 draft genome

RMQ numbers from Ergo 2007 draft genome versus 2009 Genoscape numbers from final genome

Note that Genoscape numbers are equivalent to GenBank numbers as per published M. extorquens AM1 genome in Vuilleumier et al, 2009. These sequences were used for the new microarray platform.
