Microarray technology GEM microarrays and drug discovery

Incyte Genomics' GEM™ Gene Expression Microarray is a proven genomics tool used by a large number of pharmaceutical companies to speed up the drug discovery and development process. The development and integration of this technology, together with Incyte's sequence databases and clone resources, have resulted in GEM microarrays that span approximately 60,000 human genes as well as approximately 60,000 plant, rat, mouse, yeast, and bacterial genes. The technology underlying the use of these arrays and their application to the drug discovery process is highlighted.
