Description

Detailed information

N160100 is the complete set consists of 256 plates and costs £500 in total. The plates that make up the set are also available individually and each have their own NASC Ids.

Supplied with the complete set of CATMA plates are 40 primers C1 - C24 and R1 - R16. Enough for 300 PCRs. The set is comprised of the following:-

Further details

Please use the CATMA database to find plate location of CATMA GSTs and information on gene name (AGI, EMBL or UniGene accession number)

An Excel file of the correlation between all of the wells in the plates and the CATMA IDs and AGI codes for the whole set is available (2MB file)

All secondary amplicons for the CATMA materials distributed as amplicons or slides were performed by Alex Tabrett in Jim Beynon's Group at Warwick HRI as part of the UK Investigating Gene Function (IGF) BBSRC funded Initiative and as UK collaborator in the CATMA consortium.

CATMA Spotted Arrays

These microarrays have been generated from materials donated to the stock centre by the European CATMA consortium and are derived from a set of specifically designed GST amplicons spotted on GAPII Corning slides using a Biorobotics TASII robotic arrayer.

The current slide consists of over 21,000 amplicons on one slide (without duplication of spots).

  • The NASC code for individual slides is N160165 - currently £40.
  • The NASC code for a set of 3 slides is N160166 - currently £120.

Future prices and limits are subject to change according to demand and necessity for re-amplification. Prices charged will be those quoted on the day that we receive the ORDER. Please retain your web receipt / email in case you have future queries related to invoices.

Additionally - for convenience

Excel/csv file of the correlation between all of the spots and their AGI/AT codes for the set (please note that there are a small number of spots (<10%) for which we do not currently have AGI codes - these will follow shortly).
