Four custom Axiom genotyping arrays were designed for a genome-wide association (GWA) study of 100,000 participants from the Kaiser Permanente Research Program on Genes, Environment and Health. The array optimized for individuals of European race/ethnicity was previously described. Here we detail the development of three additional microarrays optimized for individuals of East Asian, African American,...
The success of genome-wide association studies has paralleled the development of efficient genotyping technologies. We describe the development of a next-generation microarray based on the new highly-efficient Affymetrix Axiom genotyping technology that we are using to genotype individuals of European ancestry from the Kaiser Permanente Research Program on Genes, Environment and Health (RPGEH). The...
Using a single robotic platform, the GeneTAC(TM) G 3 , we have automated most of the processes involved in the cloning and characterisation of novel disease causing genes by addressing the following; firstly, identifying the BACs of interest and making shotgun libraries. Secondly, automating the set up of sequencing reactions using methodology that eliminates the need for DNA preparation of...
