Experimental model
Gene expression in the developing limb
model: During development different genes
are expressed in a choreographed order for
the spatial patterning of tissues. Chick limb
buds at stage 20 (~3 days) show patterning of
Sonic Hedgehog a major transcription factor
controlling the anterior-posterior axis in the
limb bud.
ARK-Genomics: Centre for Comparative and Functional Genomics in Farm Animals
Experimental questions
1. What are the genes associated with
patterning in the limb bud?
2. What are the genes influenced by the
presence of Sonic Hedgehog protein?

Sources of variation 1
Microarray production
• Print-pin anomalies
• Variations in printed probe
quantities even with the same
pin
• Chip batch variation (due to
many sources of unknown
variations)
• Differences in sequence length
of the immobilized DNA
• Variations in chemical probe
attachment levels to the slide
mRNA
• Differences in conditions.
• Differences between
experimental subjects within
the same covariate level.
• Differences between samples
from the same subject.
• Variation in mRNA extraction
methods from original sample.
• Variations in reverse
transcription.
• Differences in PCR
amplification.
• Different labelling efficiencies.
ARK-Genomics: Centre for Comparative and Functional Genomics in Farm Animals
Sources of variation 2
Hybridization process
• Different dye sensitivities.
• Inequalities in the application
of mRNA to the slide.
• Variations in the washing
efficiencies of non-hybridized
mRNA on the slide.
• Other differences in
hybridization parameters,
such as:
Scanning/imaging
• Different scanners.
• Different photo-multiplier
gain.
• Different spot-finding
software.
• Different grid alignments.
• Different laser power
• temperature
• experimenter
• time of the day

Conclusions
• Several successful microarray platforms are available
• Choice of platform is based on experimental design
and cost
• It is key to know the questions being asked
• Many steps in a microarray experiment contribute to
the overall variance
• Normalisation can be used to remove technical
variance
• Microarrays are a tool to answer a specific question
have a plan on how to confirm the answer.
