In order for a probe to hybridize to the target,which condition must be met?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

For a probe to hybridize to the target, it must have complementary bases. This means that the sequence of the probe should be complementary to the sequence of the target. The target can be either single-stranded DNA or RNA. However, if the target is double-stranded, it needs to be denatured (i.e., separated into single strands) before the probe can hybridize to it. B and C are incorrect because the target can be single-stranded DNA in addition to RNA, and the target does not have to have the same bases as the probe.
