Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Probes are molecules, usually short, single-stranded DNA or RNA molecules, which bind specifically to a complementary sequence of nucleotides. They are commonly used in molecular biology techniques such as hybridization, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and DNA sequencing to aid in the identification and analysis of a specific sequence of interest. Restriction enzymes, hybridomas, and digoxigenin are not specifically used for this purpose.
