What is the first step in the Southern Blot technique
Denaturation of DNA on the gel for hybridization with specific probe
Production of a group of genetically identical cells
Digestion of DNA by restriction enzyme
Isolation of DNA from a nucleated cell such as the one from the scene of crime

Isolation of DNA from a nucleated cell such as the one from the scene of crime
The first of these techniques developed was the Southern blot, named after Dr. Edwin Southern who developed it to identify specific DNA sequences. Southern blotting is a detection technique used to find the target DNA sequences in the DNA sample in the field of molecular biology. The process starts from electrophoresis of DNA molecules which are hybridized in a blotting membrane followed by a transfer step where DNA from gel is transferred onto the blotting membrane.
