Yeast Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH): A streamlined method for microarray detection of aneuploidy in S. cerevisiae A. Jacqueline Ryan Davidson College March 25, 2006
Overview • DNA Microarrays • Development of CGH Procedure • Basic Method • Optimization • Validation • Applications of CGH Procedure
CGH: An Alternative Use of DNA Microarrays • Hybridize genomic DNA to array • Detect deletions/amplifications of genes (aneuploidy) • Applications: • Evolution • Cancer
Outline of CGH Process 1. Isolate Genomic DNA 2. Fragment DNA 3. Tag DNA 4. Hybridize Tagged DNA 5. Hybridize 3DNA reagent 6. Scan Array 7. Analyze data
Tagging Method • Genisphere 3DNA Array 900DNA kit Alexa 546/Alexa 647 • Robust Signal • Less photobleaching
Genomic Isolation Method • Factors Considered • Toxicity • Time • Cost • Ease of use • Zymo YeaStar Genomic DNA kit
Genisphere CGH Procedure Early CGH • Amount of DNA • Clean Tagged DNA • Hybridization Buffer • Hybridization Temperature • Minimize Background Optimized CGH
Genisphere CGH Procedure Before After • Amount of DNA • Clean Tagged DNA • Hybridization Buffer • Hybridization Temperature • Minimize Background
Future Work with CGH Procedure • Mutant Yeast from Dr. Clifford Zeyl • Evolution under glucose limiting conditions • 2000 generations • 5000 generations
