DNA microarrays may be paired with chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) to
A) assay the use of substrates by different enzymes.
B) determine mRNA folding patterns
C) identify DNA sequences bound by specific proteins.
D) identify protein-protein interactions.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) identifies specific DNA sequences that are bound by proteins. By pairing ChIP with DNA microarrays, multiple DNA sequences can be analyzed simultaneously, allowing for the identification of which proteins are bound to which sequences. This technique is commonly used in gene expression analysis and transcription factor binding studies.
