Abstract excerpt
The invention of microarray technology has empowered scientists to quickly transition from single gene studies to massively parallel experiments investigating thousands of genes. The use of DNA microarrays relies on accurate design for probes that are immobilized on a surface and bind specifically to complementary targets in a complex solution. The quality of a set of DNA probes heavily relies on DNA...
