Southern blotting
Southern blotting A chromatographic technique for isolating and identifying specific fragments of DNA, such as the fragments formed as a result of DNA cleavage by
restriction enzymes. The mixture of fragments is subjected to electrophoresis through an agarose gel, followed by denaturation to form single-stranded fragments. These are transferred, or `blotted', onto a nitrocellulose filter where they are immobilized in their relative positions. Specific
gene probes labelled with a radioisotope are then added. These hybridize with any complementary fragments on the filter, which are subsequently revealed by autoradiography. The technique was devised by US biologist E. M. Southern (1938– ). A similar technique for detecting RNA fragments is called
Northern blotting, by analogy. See also
Western blotting.
