In this article we will discuss about the uses of DNA microarrays. The DNA Microarray technology is used to determine the level of expression of many thousands of genes simultaneously. This new approach is used not for individual genetic loci, rather, for the analysis of genome-wide patterns of gene expression. Using DNA microarrays, it is possible to estimate the relative [...]
The process of DNA cloning is carried out in four ways: 1. DNA Cloning Inside Host Cell 2. Chemically by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) 3. Reproductive Cloning 4. Therapeutic Cloning. Way # 1. DNA Cloning Inside Host Cell: DNA cloning is the selective amplification of a specific DNA fragment or a sequence for producing large quantities of the DNA fragment [...]
Introduction to Recombinant DNA Technology: Recombinant DNA technology has revolutionised life sciences, opening new vistas for research in molecular biology. It allows genetic manipulation using techniques for synthesizing, amplifying and purifying individual genes from any type of cell. Genomics has emerged as an extension of recombinant DNA technology for high resolution mapping and characterization of whole genomes and gene products [...]
