organism: Kluyveromyces lactis NRRL Y-1140
manufacture_protocol: Kluyveromyces lactis NRRL Y-1140 has 5327 genes. The manufacturer used 15437 probes designed to survey 5260 genes (or 98.7% of all genes) for this organism. The Kluyveromyces lactis NRRL Y-1140 genome used for the probe design was provided in 6 pieces of sequence ( NC_006037, NC_006038, NC_006039, NC_006040, NC_006041, NC_006042 ) representing a total of 5327 transcripts. The the sequences were analyzed for their GC content as this is an important parameter for probe design. The average GC content of the coding sequences was 40%, with a minimum and a maximum of 0% and 58% respectively. Ninety percent of the sequences had a GC content comprised between 36% and 45%. The values have been used to set OligoArray options during design. The parameter set used for this particular design is available here <http://berry.engin.umich.edu/oligoarraydb/parameter.php?org_id=644>.
