manufacture_protocol: 35- to 40-mer oligonucleotide probes were designed complementary to 11,521 planarian transcripts. In most cases, two unique oligos were designed per transcript. These probes were synthesized on two individual CombiMatrix “CustomArray” oligonucleotide arrays; “Smed1” contained 11,835 probes, while “Smed2” contained 11,584 probes. Most transcripts were represented on only one array. However, ~300 were duplicated between arrays.
