Article Evaluation
[edit]Cre-Lox recombination [1] article
- article is rated C with mid importance
- there is a warning banner urging the need for additional citations to reliable sources for verification
- the article has a warning banner urging the need for additional citations to reliable sources for verification
- some value statements exist that should be reworded :
- the clear demonstration of its usefulness
- provides the best experimental control that presently exists in transgenic animal modelling to link genotypes to phenotypes
- very short section on implementation of multiple loxP site pairs --> meaning unequal emphasis of subtopics --> could have emphasized experimental usage and breakthroughs discovered using cre-lox recombinase
- a respectable amount of citations do exist, all mainly primary articles of research - maybe use of more textbook links or perspectives articles could be used
- need to clearly explain how the deletions and inversions are functioning seperately not briefly discussing that it just happens in the same sentence

Gene Signature Detection Timeline
[edit]In the mid 1990's there were 2 studies conducted that identified unique approaches to analyzing global gene expression of a genome which collectively promoted the value of identifying and analyzing gene signatures for physiological relevance. The first study reports a technique known as Serial Analysis of Gene Expression (SAGE) that hinged on sequencing and quantifying mRNA samples which acquired levels of gene expression that eventually revealed characteristic gene expression patterns.[1]
The second study identified a technique that is now widely known as the microarray which quantifies complementary DNA (cDNA) hybridization on a glass slide to analyze the expression of many genes in parallel. [2] Fast forward to today, this technique has revolutionized research in genetics and DNA chip technology[3] as it is a widely adopted technique to profile gene expression signatures such that these physiological responses can be cataloged[4]. This catalogue of prognostic, diagnostic and predictive gene expression signatures allow for predictions of onset of pathogenic diseases in patients[5], tumour and cancer classification[6], and enhanced therapeutic strategies that predict the optimal target candidates subjects and candidate genes[7].
