Definition of DGGE
Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) is based on finger printing methodology. The gel is subjected to a constant heat of ~600C and increasing concentration of denaturing chemicals are used to force DNA molecules to un-fold (melt) which are also known as melting domains. Any variation of DNA sequences within these domains will result in different melting temperatures causing different sequences to migrate at different positions in the gel.
