Southwestern blot
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Southwestern blotting, based along the lines of Southern blotting (which was created by Edwin Southern), involves characterizing proteins that bind to DNA. The proteins undergo gel electrophoresis and are subsequently transferred to nitrocellulose membranes similar to other types of blotting.
However, since the first Southwestern blottings, many more have been proposed and discovered. Large amounts of proteins and their degradation when being isolated hampered previous protocols.
