Expressed sequence tags
Three principles underlie the SAGE methodology: 1) A short sequence tag (10-14bp) contains sufficient information to uniquely identify a transcript provided that the tag is obtained from a unique position within each transcript; 2) Sequence tags can be linked together to form long serial molecules that can be cloned and sequenced; 3) Quantitation of the number of times a particular tag is observed provides the expression level of the corresponding transcript

DNA microarrays DNA microarrays rely on the hybridization properties of nucleic acids to monitor DNA or RNA abundance on a genomic scale in different types of cells. The ancestor of microarrays: the Northern blot.
