ARRAY HAVING SUBSTANCES FIXED ON SUPPORT ARRANGED WITH CHROMOSOMAL ORDER OR SEQUENCE POSITION INFORMATION ADDED THERETO, PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME, ANALYTICAL SYSTEM USING THE ARRAY AND USE OF THESE

摘要

In the production of various arrays such as a microarray, multiple types of biosubstances obtained from an arbitrary living organism, or synthetic substances capable of interacting with such biosubstances are arranged and immobilized on a support in such an orderly manner that the order of respective base sequence blocks corresponding to the biosubstances lined up on the chromosome can be ascertained. As the biosubstances, there can be mentioned nucleic acids such as DNA, polypeptides such as protein, etc. As the above synthetic substances, there can be mentioned compounds capable of reacting with them. By virtue of this regulation of the sequence order of biosubstances or synthetic substances immobilized on a support, the array can be of avail in, for example, screening conducted at creature breed improvement.
