| Nucleic Acid Hybridization Genomic Hybridization | Acid Hybridization, Nucleic | Acid Hybridizations, Nucleic | Genomic Hybridizations | Hybridization, Genomic | Hybridization, Nucleic Acid | Hybridizations, Genomic | Hybridizations, Nucleic Acid Widely used technique which exploits the ability of complementary sequences in single-stranded DNAs or RNAs to pair with each other to form a double helix. Hybridization can take place between two complimentary DNA sequences, between a single-stranded DNA and a complementary RNA, or between two RNA sequences. The technique is used to detect and isolate specific sequences, measure homology, or define other characteristics of one or both strands.
