We propose to develop an infrastructure that will allow for the large-scale analysis of gene expression profiles. These profiles will be applied to studies of toxicogenomic responses from multiple species exposed to Superfund chemicals and their metabolites. The Functional Genomics Research Core will provide research support for DNA microarray analysis to the majority of the Research Projects proposed in the Duke SBRC application. One of the aims of the FGRC is to foster inter- and intra-disciplinary research though its function as a central resource. In addition, by performing independent data analyses, which are beyond the specific aims of any individual research project, we will expand the research scope of the SBRC. The specific aims of this Core are: 1. Develop an infrastructure for DNA microarray experimentation that will support SBRC investigators at Duke. This will included consultation on experimental design, and performing DNA microarray processing, data analysis and data storage. 2. Develop a support structure for the analysis of DNA microarray gene expression data. This will include developing a MIAME and MAML compliant database for the storage and analysis of DNA microarray data; providing basic data processing services; and providing resources for individual investigators to perform advanced data analysis. 3. Facilitate interactions among Duke University SBRC investigators. This will be accomplished by performing independent, genomic analysis of microarray data from individual SBRC projects and communicating results to all of the investigators. We propose to enhance microarrays studies from individual projects by identifying and analyzing genes that are of particular interest for the studies outlined in all of the projects, and serve as a resource to facilitate collaborations among SBRC investigators.

我们建议开发一个基础设施，将允许大规模的基因表达谱分析。这些配置文件将被应用到多个物种暴露于超级基金化学品及其代谢产物的毒理基因组学反应的研究。功能基因组学研究中心将为杜克大学SBRC申请中提出的大多数研究项目提供DNA微阵列分析的研究支持。FGRC的目标之一是促进跨学科和学科内的研究，虽然它作为一个中心资源的功能。此外，透过进行独立的数据分析，我们将扩大研究中心的研究范围，而这些分析是超越任何个别研究项目的特定目的。该核心的具体目标是：1.开发DNA微阵列实验的基础设施，以支持杜克的SBRC研究人员。这将包括对实验设计的咨询，并进行DNA微阵列处理，数据分析和数据存储。2.开发一个用于分析DNA微阵列基因表达数据的支持结构。这将包括开发一个符合MIAME和MAML的数据库，用于DNA微阵列的存储和分析。 数据;提供基本的数据处理服务;以及为个别调查人员提供资源，以进行高级数据分析。3.促进杜克大学SBRC研究者之间的互动。这将通过对各个SBRC项目的微阵列数据进行独立的基因组分析并将结果传达给所有研究人员来实现。我们建议通过识别和分析所有项目中概述的研究特别感兴趣的基因来增强单个项目的微阵列研究，并作为促进SBRC研究人员之间合作的资源。
