Question
Chapter 13, Problem 51RE
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The use of DNA microarrays to diagnose a patient’s cells for a cancer prognosis is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
The total DNA of a cell that contains all the genes is called a genome.
The total complement of proteins is called a proteome.
The whole genome of an organism can be stored in the form of a DNA library.
cDNA libraries are used to store only the active genomes of an organism.
The DNA microchip contains specific single-stranded DNA sequences, which can be used to bind with cDNA. This tells which genes are active.
