Genotyping/CNV

At the Microarray Core Facility we provide access to full service of state-of-the-art genotyping of customized SNP sets, focused SNP sets, and genome-wide screens covering up to 5.000.000 SNPs on BeadChips (Illumina). Beside standard genotyping, we support loss-of heterocygosity (LOH), and copy number variation (CNV) studies. For the analysis of genetic variation and function, we make use of the Illumina Beadchip technology.

Genotyping / CNV Analysis

Genotyping provides a measurement of the genetic variation between members of a species. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) are the most common type of genetic variation. A SNP is a single base pair mutation at a specific locus, usually consisting of two alleles (where the rare allele frequency is >1%; random definition). SNPs are often found to be the etiology of many human diseases. Because SNPs are evolutionary conserved, they have been proposed as a markers for use in quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis and in association studies. Previously these studies were done using microsatellites.

Genome-wide SNP Analysis

We provide service, using all available Illumina Infinium BeadChips that carry a fixed-content of SNPs for whole genome genotyping screens. This offers virtually unconstrained locus selection for high-value content coupled with high resolution. Until now we've analyzed more than 2000 samples.
