In order to search for specific genotypes related to this unique phenotype, we used whole genomic DNA microarray to characterize the genomic diversity of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) strains isolated from clinical patients in China. The open reading frame (ORF) fragments on our microarray were generated by PCR using gene-specific primers. Genomic DNA of H. pylori 26695 and J99 were used as templates. Thirty-four H. pylori isolates were obtained from patients in Shanghai. Results were judged based on In(x) transformed and normalized Cy3/Cy5 ratios. Our microarray included 1882 DNA fragments corresponding to 1636 ORFs of both sequenced H. pylori strains. Cluster analysis, revealed two diverse regions in the H. pylori genome that were not present in other isolates. Among the 1636 genes, 1091 (66.7%) were common to all H. pylori strains, representing the functional core of the genome. Most of the genes found in the H. pylori functional core were responsible for metabolism, cellular processes, transcription and biosynthesis of amino acids, functions that are essential to H. pylori's growth and colonization in its host. In contrast, 522 (31.9%) genes were strain-specific genes that were missing from at least one strain of H. pylori. Strain-specific genes primarily included restriction modification system components, transposase genes, hypothetical proteins and outer membrane proteins. These strain-specific genes may aid the bacteria under specific circumstances during their long-term infection in genetically diverse hosts. Our results suggest 34 H. pylori clinical strains have extensive genomic diversity. Core genes and strain-specific genes both play essential roles in H. pylori propagation and pathogenesis. Our microarray experiment may help select relatively significant genes for further research on the pathogenicity of H. pylori and development of a vaccine for H. pylori.

DNA 마이크로어레이는 바이오칩의 발전에서 가장 주목받으며 발전하고 있는 분야로서 이에 대한 연구가 점차 확장하고 있다. DNA나 RNA 등 유전자의 매우 느린 확산속도를 극복하기 위하여 마이크로플루딕 바이오칩이 DNA 마이크로어레이에 적용되는 최근의 학술적인 사례들을 연구, 비교하였다. DNA 마이크로어레이에 적용된 미세유체 바이오칩은 상당수가 효율적인 hybridization을 달성하기 위한 믹싱 시스템이 많이 보고되었으며, 이 총설에서는 그에 대한 분석을 수행하여 유전자 hybridization 강화를 이룬 시스템에 대한 최근 동향을 가늠할 수 있게 하였다. 특별히 PDMS를 이용한 마이크로 펌프의 적용 등, 앞으로의 미세유체 DNA 마이크로어레이 발전가능성과 모델링의 한계점 등을 정리 분석해 보았다.

Microarray-based DNA chips provide an architecture for multi-analyte sensing. In this paper, we report a new approach for DNA chip microarray fabrication. Multifunctional DNA chip microarray was made by immobilizing many kinds of biomaterials on transducers (particles). DNA chip microarray was prepared by randomly distributing a mixture of the particles on a chip pattern containing thousands of m-scale sites. The particles occupied a different sites from site to site. The particles were arranged on the chip pattern by the random fluidic self-assembly (RFSA) method, using a hydrophobic interaction for assembly.

현재 많은 대학과 기업에서 다양한 방법으로 상용화가 가능한 protein microarray의 개발을 위해 많은 연구를 집중하고 있다. Protein microarray의 제작 및 분석 조건을 최적화하기 위한 연구도 진행되고 있지만 protein microarray로 부터 얻은 분석 결과를 모든 연구자들이 공유하고 통합하기 위한 노력이 절실한 실정이다. 뿐만 아니라, PCR 같은 무한 확장 방법이 존재하지 않는 단백질의 특성을 고려할 때, 좀 더 실용적인 protein microarray를 많이 만들기 위해서는 수많은 단백질들과 결합할 수 있는 특이성이 높고 결합력이 강한 capture molecule들을 개발하는 것이 필수이다. 그러나 이러한 장애에도 불구하고 protein microarray는 아주 적은 시료량으로 high-throughput assay가 가능하다는 장점 때문에 현재의 생명과학의 발전 추세로 볼 때 앞으로 protein microarray가 조만간 실용화될 것이며 이의 시장성은 매우 클 것으로 기대된다. 보다 빠른 실용화를 위해서는 protein microarray의 개발에 필요한 기반 기술의 개발과 동시에 이를 활용하기 위한 contents의 개발도 절실히 요구된다.

High throughput analysis using a DNA chip microarray is powerful tool in the post genome era. Less labor-intensive and lower cost-performance is required. Thus, this paper aims to develop the multi-channel type label-free DNA chip and detect SNP (Single nucleotide polymorphisms). At first, we fabricated a high integrated type DNA chip array by lithography technology. Various probe DNAs were immobilized on the microelectrode array. We succeeded to discriminate of DNA hybridization between target DNA and mismatched DNA on microarray after immobilization of a various probe DNA and hybridization of label-free target DNA on the electrodes simultaneously. This method is based on redox of an electrochemical ligand.

Bioinformatics is a rapidly emerging field of biomedical research. A flood of large-scale genomic and postgenomic data means that many of the challenges in biomedical research are now challenges in computational sciences. Clinical informatics has long developed methodologies to improve biomedical research and clinical care by integrating experimental and clinical information systems. The informatics revolutions both in bioinformatics and clinical informatics will eventually change the current practice of medicine, including diagnostics, therapeutics, and prognostics. Postgenome informatics, powered by high throughput technologies and genomic-scale databases, is likely to transform our biomedical understanding forever much the same way that biochemistry did a generation ago. The paper describes how these technologies will impact biomedical research and clinical care, emphasizing recent advances in biochip-based functional genomics and proteomics. Basic data preprocessing with normalization, primary pattern analysis, and machine learning algorithms will be presented. Use of integrated biochip informatics technologies, text mining of factual and literature databases, and integrated management of biomolecular databases will be discussed. Each step will be given with real examples in the context of clinical relevance. Issues of linking molecular genotype and clinical phenotype information will be discussed.

A whole genome analysis for monitoring specific changes in gene expression, using microarrays or proteome profiling of the same, are the two tools that have already revolutionized current approaches for studying disease. These methods are particularly important in cancer research as there are many overexpressed genes, and their products remain uncharacterized. This article presents a general overview of these technologies and their applications for studying cancer.
