CGH provides a comprehensive picture of all chromosomal gains and losses within a single experiment. In contrast to banding analysis, CGH requires no preparation of metaphase chromosomes from the cells to be analyzed (which in certain tumor types may be difficult or even impossible). - [Read Detection of Chromosomal Imbalances Using DOP-PCR and Comparative Genomic Hybridization (CGH)]

Pilot ligations and packaging reactions are used to establish the amounts of fragmented genomic DNA and bacteriophage {lambda} arms that yield the maximum number of recombinants. Additional ligation and packaging reactions may then be set up to yield a comprehensive library of genomic DNA. - [Read Ligation of Bacteriophage lambda Arms to Fragments of Foreign Genomic DNA Protocol]

Protocol describes a recently developed method — methylation-specific digital karyotyping (MSDK) — that enables comprehensive and unbiased genome-wide DNA methylation analysis. Using a combination of a methylation-sensitive mapping enzyme (for example, AscI) and a fragmenting enzyme (for example, NlaIII), short sequence tags can be obtained and uniquely mapped to genome location. - [Read Methylation-Specific Digital Karyotyping Protocol]
