Homeotic complex (Hox) genes are defined as a group of related genes that specify the anterior-posterior axis and segment identity of metazoan organisms during early embryonic development. These are situated very close to one another on the chromosome in groups of clusters. The orders of these genes located on the chromosomes are the same as…

A genomic library is a collection of identical recombinant vectors each containing different insert of DNA where each vectors representing the entire genomic DNA of a single organism. In order to create the genomic library we first have to else the cell and isolate the nucleic acid. After isolating the nucleic acid use an Rinse…
