Molecular Tools in Biotechnology MCQs

Expression of hundreds of different genes in DNA microarray technology is monitored by using

Identical sized RNA transcript is detected by Northern blot analysis of UDP glucuronosyl transferase obtained from human liver and kidney. Microarray analysis of the same samples shows equal spot intensity, whereas Western blot detects a 55 kDa strong band in liver, but a very faint in kidney of same size. The regulation of UDP glucuronosyl transferase is
