Solution
The correct option is D X-ray crystallography
X-ray crystallography is a technique to study the structural details of crystallizable proteins and nucleic acids. X-ray microscope developed by Kirkpatrick is useful in studying detailed structures of chemicals present in solid state, e.g., haemoglobin, insulin, DNA, RNA etc. due to diffraction of X rays by different atoms of the substance. Binding of specific proteins on regulatory sequences of DNA will generate specific diffraction pattern of X rays which can help to identify specific proteins binding to specific regulatory regions in DNA.
