DNA microarrays in parasitology: strengths and limitations TRENDS IN PARASITOLOGY Boothroyd, J. C., Blader, I., Cleary, M., Singh, U. 2003; 19 (10): 470-476

Abstract

Genome sequencing efforts have provided a wealth of new biological information that promises to have a major impact on our understanding of parasites. Microarrays provide one of the major high-throughput platforms by which this information can be exploited in the laboratory. Many excellent reviews and technique articles have recently been published on applying microarrays to organisms for which fully annotated genomes are at hand. However, many parasitologists work on organisms whose genomes have been only partially sequenced and where little, if any, annotation is available. The focus of this review is on how to use and apply microarrays to these situations.
