Cattle 20K cDNA
The Bovine 20K cDNA array is a development of our bovine 5K immue and bovine 15K arrays. The bovine 15 K array is no longer available. The array contains the bovine immune array supplemented with clones from a range of other tissue sources. The bulk of the array (9.6K) is taken from the bovine non redundant library (Bovine Gene set RZPD1). These two sets of sequences were clustered with the 581,234 EST's available in Dec 2004 and any clusters not represented on the 15K array where used for the selection of clones from 6 new normalised cDNA libraries. The new libraries were from bovine ovary (full ovarian cycle), uterus, and 4 libraries from normal and trypanosomiasis infected cattle (N'Dama and Boran breeds) from Liver, spleen, lymph node and bone marrow. The arrray also includes 1850 sheep normalised and subtracted spleen library clones versions. The 20,344 clones on the array are printed in singlet. This array has proven that it is suitable for measuring expression in both cattle and sheep.

Cattle 15K Array cDNA
The Bovine 15K array has been expanded to include more genes. The new array is available as a 20K single spot array.

Cattle 5K Immune cDNA
ID: A-MEXP-495
The array is constructed from 5,623 cattle EST's isolated from a Bovine activated macrophage library. Clustering of the EST's with all known cattle EST's allowed selection of representations of each cluster. The array was supplemented with other known genes with probable function in the immune response, that were not found in the sequencing of the library.
