Complementary Dna (Cdna) (Microbiology)
A DNA sequence synthesized from a messenger RNA molecule, using reverse transcriptase enzyme. cDNAs can be used experimentally to determine the sequence of messenger RNAs after their introns (non-protein-coding sections) have been spliced out. The single- stranded form is often used as a probe in physical mapping.
