Nucleic acid methods

Nucleic acid methods are the techniques used to study Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA).

Purification Quantification Synthesis Other
 * Phenol-chloroform extraction
 * minicolumn purification
 * Abundance in weight: spectroscopic quantification
 * Absolute abundance in number: RTPCR
 * high-throughput relative abundance DNA microarray
 * high-throughput absolute abundance SAGE
 * Size: Gel electrophoresis
 * De novo: Oligonucleotide synthesis
 * Amplification: PCR
 * DNA sequencing
 * Bisulfite sequencing
 * Expression cloning
 * Southern blot
 * northern blot
 * Sucrose gradient centrifugation
 * Radioactivity in biological research
 * Lab-on-a-chip
 * Nuclear run-on assay
 * Fluorescent in situ hybridization
 * several Bioinformatics methods, such as RNA structure prediction
