Probing <strong>DNA</strong><br />

One way to study a specific <strong>DNA</strong> fragment within a<br />

genome is to probe for the sequence of the fragment<br />

A probe is a labeled (usually radioactive or fluorescent)<br />

single-stranded oligonucleotide, synthesized to be<br />

complementary to the sequence of interest – probe<br />

sequence is known<br />

Attach single-stranded <strong>DNA</strong> to a membrane (or other solid<br />

support) and incubate with the probe so that it hybridizes<br />

Visualize the probe (e.g. by X-ray for radioactive probes)
