you would like to see if the gene that you are studying in mouse has a homolog in humans. to do this you decide to do a southern blot. you believe the gene sequence will be not be highly conserved. therefore, you would like to select conditions to hybridize your probe with low stringency to find as many candidates as possible. which condition (relatively) will you use? select one: a. at higher annealing temperature b. at lower annealing temperature



Answer :

So option a(High stringency) is the correct answer.

The gene sequence will be not be highly conserved. As a result, you want to choose criteria to hybridise your probe with minimal stringency in order to find as many candidates as feasible. You will employ (relatively) high stringency.

What exactly is a gene?

A gene is the most basic physical and functional component of heredity. The building block of genes is DNA. Some genes act as blueprints for protein synthesis. However, many genes do not encode proteins. Human genes range in size from a few hundred to over 2 million DNA bases.
