of a radiol abeled (or chemiluminescent) dexoynucleotide (dNTP) will yield probes representing the sequences found in the template DNA. The labeled probes can then be used to identify other sequences homologous to this DNA (e.g. by Southern blotting).

Northern and western blots were given contrasting names to reflect the different target substances (RNA and proteins, respectively) that are subjected in these procedures to electrophoresis, blotting and subsequent detection with specific probes.
