What are the Applications of Gene Cloning in Histology?
Gene cloning has several applications in Histology:
Gene Function Studies: By cloning and expressing specific genes, researchers can study their functions in various tissues. Gene Therapy: Cloning genes involved in diseases can help in developing gene therapies. Protein Production: Cloned genes can be used to produce proteins for histological studies, such as antibodies for immunohistochemistry. Transgenic Models: Gene cloning is essential for creating transgenic animals, which are valuable in studying tissue-specific gene functions.
