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. h is research was conducted to isolate and clone cDNA of gene encoding for metallothionein type 2 from Melastoma affi ne . Total RNA was isolated from young leaves. Total cDNA was synthesized from the total RNA by reverse tr...
