The upcoming discussion will update you about the differences between Genomic AND cDNA Library. Difference # Genomic Library: 1. Genomic Library is prepared directly from the genomic DNA. 2. Genomic Library represents entire genome of the organism. 3. Restriction endonucleases and ligases are important for its construction. 4. They carry introns also. 5. They may represent the DNA of both [...]
Transposons: Definition and Types! Definition of Transposons: Presence of transposable elements was first predicted by Barbara McClintock in maize (corn) in late 1940s. After several careful studies, she found that certain genetic elements were moving from one site to an entirely different site in the chromosome. She called this phenomenon of changing sites of genetic elements as transposition and those [...]
