How Do Geneticists Contribute to Histological Studies?
Geneticists use various techniques to contribute to histological studies:
DNA sequencing: This technique helps in determining the exact sequence of nucleotides in a DNA molecule, providing insights into genetic variations that affect tissue structure. Fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH): This method allows geneticists to detect and localize the presence or absence of specific DNA sequences on chromosomes. Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR): PCR is used to amplify small segments of DNA, making it easier to study specific genes related to tissue function and disease.
