The southwestern blot, is a lab technique that involves identifying as well as characterizing DNA-binding proteins [1] by their ability to bind to specific oligonucleotide probes. Determination of molecular weight of proteins binding to DNA is also made possible by the technique. The name originates from a combination of ideas underlying Southern blotting and Western blotting techniques of which they detect DNA and protein respectively. Similar to other types of blotting, proteins are separated by SDS-PAGE and are subsequently transferred to nitrocellulose membranes. Thereafter southwestern blotting begins to vary with regards to procedure as since the first blotting’s, many more have been proposed and discovered with goals of enhancing results. Former protocols were hampered by the need for large amounts of proteins and their susceptibility to degradation while being isolated.
Southwestern blotting was first described by Brian Bowen, Jay Steinberg, U.K. Laemmli, and Harold Weintraub in 1979.[2] During the time the technique was originally called "protein blotting". While there were existing techniques for purification of proteins associated with DNA, they often had to be used together to yield desired results. Thus, Bowen and colleagues sought to describe a procedure that could simplify the current methods of their time.
