fluorescence in situ hybridization

fluorescence in situ hybridization
Abbreviation: FISH
Hybridization of cloned, fluorescently labelled DNA or RNA, to intact biological materials, notably chromosome spreads and thin tissue sections. The technique allows the visualization of the physical location of nucleic acid sequences homologous to the probe, and is used for the placement of genes on chromosomes and for the spatial and temporal pattern of gene expression of specific mRNA molecules.
