What range of ratios could indicate that a gene was not expressed in cancerous tissue, but was expressed in healthy tissue?

1 answer:

5 0

The range of ratio which can be used to indicate that a gene was not expressed in the cancerous tissue but was expressed in the healthy tissue is 0.5 - 0.0625.
Microarray is a technique that is used to measure the differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. The method measures the amount of mRNA for genes that are present in a sample and compare the results between healthy and cancerous cells. A value of less than 1 indicates that the genes from the microarray are more active in normal cells.

What is mitosis? What is the importance of mitosis?

I am Lyosha [343]

Mitosis is important because it is essential for growth and repair in the body. Mitosis happens when a parent cell divides, creating two identical copies, referred to as daughter cells. During this process, it is essential that the daughter cells are exactly the same with the same copies of DNA.
