B) polymerase chain reaction
C) plasmid ligation
D) cloning

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

DNA footprinting technique involves treating DNA with a DNA-binding protein, followed by partial digestion with nucleases to leave gaps in the DNA sequence. These gaps are then filled with labeled nucleotides and subjected to gel electrophoresis to identify regions of the DNA sequence that were protected from nuclease digestion by the protein.
