Can I use this Human Exon Array to detect the expression of microRNAs?
Approximately 190 unprocessed human microRNA sequences from the Sanger MicroRNA Registry are represented on this array. Although the probe sets are present, the current WT Sense Target Labeling Assay has not been tested or optimized to efficiently label the very small RNA molecules. Therefore, the utility of the system to measure microRNA expression is uncertain at this moment.
