MCQ
Genes of interest can be selected from a genomic library by using
  • A
    Restriction enzymes
  • B
    Cloning vectors
  • $DNA$ probes
  • D
    Gene targets

Answer

Correct option: C.
$DNA$ probes
c
A hybridization probe is a fragment of $DNA$ of variable length which is used in $DNA$ samples to detect the presence of nucleotide sequence (the $DNA$ target) that are complementary to the sequence in the probe. The probe hybridize to single-stranded $DNA$ whose base sequence allow probe target base-pairing due to complementary between the probe and target.
