description: The Panorama Mycobacterium tuberculosis Gene Array contains 3,875 PCR-amplified open reading frames from strain H37Rv. The entire genome contains 3,918 putative ORFs. However, extensive homology in the remaining ORFs renders analysis of these ORFs redundant. PCR products have been designed to be less than 500 bp in length and in most part have been designed to represent a region of the ORF that has as little homology to other ORFs as possible.  The gene arrays are 8 cm x 24 cm in size and contain equal mass of all the genes.
