Functional genomics platform

Genopolis hosts a microarray platform that uses the Affymetrix GeneChip® microarray technology for genome and transcriptome analyses. In 2008, this platform was enhanced by the incorporation of a new institute [the Wellcome Trust Centre for Human Genetics] to provide ‘Illumina’ microarray profiling.

The following services are currently available:

Whole genome genotyping applications, which include:
1. family-based association studies
2. cancer genetics
3. population genetics
4. chromosomal copy number analysis

Whole genome gene expression profiling applications:
1. discovery of new and improved molecular diagnostics
2. identification of new molecular targets for therapy
3. find and clarify biological pathways
