- Experiment A microarray was hybridized with a mixture of two differentially labeled fluorescent cDNAs, one prepared using retinal RNA of 1-day-old mice (labeled with a green fluorescent dye) and the other prepared using retinal RNA of 28-day-old mice (red fluorescence). The two probes were prepared from identical amounts of retinal tissues and were mixed together for hybridization to the microarray. Unhybridized probes were washed away, and the microarray was photographed in a fluorescence microscope.arrow_forwardExplain the predicted results with the diagrams presented. the cut plsmid is 5.9kb, and a gene insert is 720 bp. 1) ligation 2) self ligation of two vectors 3) self ligation of two inserts 4) ligation of a vector with multiple inserts. also how many inserts can be ligated into a vector 5) ligation of one insert into a vectorarrow_forwardBriefly explain how synthetic probes are created to screen a DNA library when the protein encoded by the gene is known.arrow_forward
