complementary DNA
complementary DNA (cDNA) A form of DNA prepared in the laboratory using messenger
RNA (mRNA) as template, i.e. the reverse of the usual process of
transcription in cells; the synthesis is catalysed by
reverse transcriptase. cDNA thus has a base sequence that is complementary to that of the mRNA template; unlike genomic DNA, it contains no noncoding sequences (
introns). cDNA is used in
gene cloning for the expression of eukaryote genes in prokaryote host cells, or as a
gene probe to locate particular base sequences in genomic DNA.
