Abstract

The microarray has shown tremendous potential for investigating gene expression profiles and expression levels in comparative biology; exploring the regulation mechanisms of gene expression; and evaluating target gene for developing new chemotherapeutic agents, vaccine, and diagnostic methods. In this chapter, we provide a detailed protocol for scientists who wish to investigate gene expression profiles by performing a microarray analysis, including different methods of RNA purification, decontamination, cDNA synthesis, fragmentation, and biotin labeling for hybridization using Affymetrix Staphylococcus aureus chips.
