What Techniques are Used to Study rRNAs in Histology?
Several techniques are employed to study rRNAs in histology. These include northern blotting for detecting specific rRNA molecules, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) for visualizing the distribution of rRNAs within tissues, and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) for quantifying rRNA levels. Electron microscopy can also be used to observe ribosomes and nucleoli where rRNA synthesis occurs.
