Flashcards
What is RFLP?
What is RFLP?
A technique used to analyze genetic variation by cutting DNA with restriction enzymes and comparing the sizes of the resulting fragments.
What does RFLP analyze?
What does RFLP analyze?
RFLP analyzes genetic variation within a population by examining differences in the length of DNA fragments after cutting with restriction enzymes.
Which process is used to generate RFLP?
Which process is used to generate RFLP?
Southern blotting is a technique used to transfer DNA fragments from a gel onto a membrane for detection and analysis.
Study Notes
RFLP
- RFLP stands for Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism
- RFLP analyzes genetic variation in DNA sequences by identifying differences in the length of restriction fragments
- The process used to generate RFLP is DNA digestion with restriction endonucleases, which cut DNA at specific recognition sites, resulting in fragments of varying lengths.
