description: NIA Mouse 44K Microarray v1.0 combines two 22K Agilent arrays: "NIA Mouse 22K Microarray v2.0 (Development 60-mer Oligo)"  and  "Agilent Mouse Oligo Microarray (G4121A)" into one 44K chip. 44K array is formatted on a 1x3 inch (25mm x 75mm) glass slide.  Each 44,176-feature microarray contains 41,920 (60-mer) probes representing empirical and predicted mouse genes and transcripts.  The annotation information is based on the NIA Mouse Gene Index 4.0 http://lgsun.grc.nia.nih.gov/geneindex4, which combines genome assembly sequences from public databases (RefSeq, Ensembl, Riken), and the NIA collection of public EST libraries derived from stem cells and early stage of mouse embryos, along with human-curated genetic databases to form structure models of over 40,000 genetic loci4.
