laboratory technique for detecting specific RNA molecules

Northern blot, also known as RNA blotting, is a laboratory technique used to detect and study specific RNA molecules within a sample. It involves separating RNA by gel electrophoresis, transferring it to a membrane, and then hybridizing it with a labeled probe that binds to the target RNA sequence. This method is useful for analyzing gene expression and understanding how genes are regulated at the RNA level.
