complementary (or copy) DNA.
Complementary dna produced from a rna template by the action of rna- dependent dna polymerase.
(= complementary DNA) Viral reverse transcriptase can be used to synthesize DNA that is complementary to RNA (eg. an isolated mRNA). The cDNA can be used, for example, as a probe to locate the gene or can be cloned in the double-stranded form.
Complementary DNA produced via a mRNA template using the enzyme reverse transcriptase.the DNA of the chromosome i.e. chromosomal DNA.
Type: Abbreviation Definitions: 1. Abbreviation for complementary DNA, sometimes used as copy DNA.
cDNA: Complementary DNA. cDNA is single-stranded DNA made in the laboratory from a messenger RNA template under the aegis of the enzyme reverse transcriptase. This form of DNA is often used as a probe in the physical mapping of a chromosome. A cDNA library is a collection of DNA sequences generated from mRNA sequences. This type of library contains...
