I had a question the other day which was basically asking how you would identify a cell which contains a certain DNA sequence. Pretty much all the answer choices you would expect were listed: several of the blots, hybridization, immunohistochemical stain, etc.
I was thinking it must be southern blot or hybridization, but I had no idea which was the better answer. I'm pretty bad at molecular bio, can anybody help me figure out what this question is getting at? Particularly how a southern blot would be used differently than hybridization?
