Rationale for change

To correctly answer the question, the knowledge that southern blotting analyzes DNA and the process in which it does so is needed. The UWorld educational objective for this question states, "Southern blotting is a technique used to identify DNA mutations. It involves restriction endonuclease digestion of sample DNA, gel electrophoresis, and gene identification with a labeled DNA probe." Thus, to meet the educational objective for tis question, this card helps the learner understand that southern blotting is used to analyze DNA. Additionally, this card currently has no tags in the Anking deck.

Text
A(n) {{c2::Southern}} blot is used to analyze {{c1::DNA}}
Extra
- Used in genetic testing of diseases, forensics (DNA identification - microsatellite analysis can also be used here)

- Can use to observe inheritance of RFLP markers

SNoW DRoP:
- Southern = DNA
- Northern = RNA
- Western = Protein
