RFLP (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism)
The excerpt introduces RFLP, a molecular biology method for detecting DNA sequence variations. It explains the principle of restriction enzymes cutting specific DNA sequences and generating restriction fragments. The procedure involves DNA isolation, digestion, gel electrophoresis, and hybridization with labeled probes. RFLP’s applications span genetics, forensic science, and medical diagnostics. Despite its replacement by newer…
