Northern Blotting Technique Enables Specific Nucleotide Sequences Detected

Northern blotting detects specific nucleotide sequences in mRNA by using gel electrophoresis, transfer to a membrane, and nucleic acid hybridization with a labeled probe.

Northern blotting is a technique used to detect specific RNA sequences by first separating RNA molecules via gel electrophoresis, transferring them to a membrane, and then using a labeled nucleic acid probe for hybridization.
