subtractive hybridization

subtractive hybridization
(= subtraction cloning)
Technique used to identify genes expressed differentially between two tissue samples. A large excess of mRNA from one sample is hybridized to cDNA from the other, and the double stranded hybrids removed by physical means. Remaining cDNAs are those not represented as RNA in the first sample, and thus presumably expressed uniquely in the second. To improve specificity, the process is often repeated several times. See also differential screening.
