ISOLATION AND CLONING OF cDNA OF GENE ENCODING FOR METALLOTHIONEIN TYPE 2 FROM MELASTOMA AFFINE
Metallothionein is an important protein for detoxifying heavy metal ions. This research was conducted to isolate and clone cDNA of gene encoding for metallothionein type 2 from Melastoma affine. Total RNA was isolated from young leaves. Total cDNA was synthesized from the total RNA by reverse tra...
