Expression Data Generation and Collection at MPIMG and RZPD Resource Center within the German Human Genome Project Steffen Schulze-Kremer
Background History • 1987 • first spotting system (EMBL,ICRF) • ~1989 • complex cDNA Hybridisations to arrays • ~1989 onward • distribution of arrays in reference library system
RZPD Database Objectives (since 95) • To support dissemination of variety of biological materials • Clones • Filters • Pools • To collect and redistribute biological primary data • Hybridisations • Sequences • Phenotypes
