From your knowledge about DNA microarray, answer the following: If the expression microarray experiment was done with a normal sample and a suspected sample, after reading the color pattern resulted from the experiment it was recorded that “gene A22” is expressed in the suspected sample. The gene A22 is clinically linked to colon cancer. Answer the following: What is the expected color of the spot on the microarray which represents this gene? What is your interpretation of the suspected sample; is it a cancer sample or not and explain why?

Describe the methodology that you would use to determine the association between specific sequence variations or epigenetic modifications and observed diseases in humans. Given your newfound knowledge of this association how would you then design a genetic test that could be used to identify individuals within a given population who have developed the disease or at risk of developing the disease. “The disease” here refers to any heritable genetic disease..
You isolate genomic DNA from brain cells and heart cells and use PCR to amplify the promoter region of gene A, known to be methylated under certain circumstances. To determine which cell type has methylation in this region, you treat the DNA with sodium bisulfite, sequence the regions from both brain and heart cells, and compare to the untreated sequence, as shown below. Untreated: ATCCGGCGACG Brain: ATCCGGCGACG Heart: ATCTGGTGACG Given these results, which cell type would you expect to transcribe MORE "A" mRNA?

On the image, you can see the results of a DNA microarray used for cancer prognosis, where tissue samples from healthy and cancerous tissues were analyzed. cDNA from healthy cells and cancer cells were labeled with green and red fluorescence, respectively, mixed equally, and hybridized with the chip. It is known that gene A is more highly expressed in breast cancer type I, while genes B and C have lower expression in type II, which is highly aggressive. Based on the gene expression levels shown in the image, the cancer sample does not correspond to either type I or type II breast cancer, why is that?
