D
PCR – Molecular diagnostics
Explanation
RNA probes are stretches of single-stranded RNA used to detect the presence of complementary nucleic acid sequences (target sequences) by hybridization. Gene therapy is an experimental technique that uses genes to treat or prevent disease. Transgenic mice are being used to test the safety of the polio vaccine. The first transgenic cow, Rosie, produced human protein-enriched milk (2.4 grams per liter). The milk contained human alpha-lactalbumin and was nutritionally a more balanced product than natural cow’s milk. PCR is a method for amplifying a specific region of a DNA molecule without the requirement for time-consuming cloning procedures – molecular diagnosis.
