Mouse Diversity Genotyping Array
The Mouse Diversity Genotyping Array is the most advanced high-density mouse genotyping microarray available. It was designed by Center investigators Drs. Fernando Pardo-Manuel de Villena and Gary Churchill. This single, custom Affymetrix array can simultaneously assay over 600,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and over 900,000 invariant genomic probes (IGPs) in a mouse DNA sample.

Watch an interview of Professor Churchill answering the following questions:
- How did you choose the array’s SNPs? (4:08)
- How did you ensure the array’s reliability? (2:07)
- How are IGPs different from SNPs, and how will they increase the array’s utility? (4:23)
- What are some of the quality control measures you used to validate the array? (3:28)
- What will be some to the most important uses of the array? (2:41)
- How will the array help researchers identify genes associated with disease? (3:35)
The Jackson Laboratory now offers a JAX Mouse Diversity Genotyping Array Service utilizing this innovative genotyping microarray.
