PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is a vital technique in molecular biology, enabling researchers to amplify specific DNA fragments exponentially. Essential for cloning, forensics, and medical …

Oops. Something went wrong. Please try again. Uh oh, it looks like we ran into an error. You need to refresh. If this problem persists, tell us.

Key points: Polymerase chain reaction, or PCR, is a technique to make many copies of a specific DNA region in vitro (in a test tube rather than an organism). PCR relies on a thermostable DNA polymerase, …

We're going to break down DNA sequencing into three different steps. The first step is you take the sample of DNA that you are interested in sequencing and you basically use PCR to amplify the …

Introduction Suppose you have just done a PCR reaction, making many copies of a target DNA region. Or perhaps you’ve done some DNA cloning, trying to "paste" a gene into a circular DNA plasmid. Now, you …

ATP structure, ATP hydrolysis to ADP, and reaction coupling.

Researchers studying skin cancer and melanin synthesis used reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to measure how UV light exposure stimulated the production of melanin.

If we can make copied of a fragment of DNA through PCR, why do we still need DNA cloning?

Intro to biotechnology DNA cloning and recombinant DNA Overview: DNA cloning Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) Gel electrophoresis Gel electrophoresis

That’s because, during a ligation, DNA fragments don’t always get “pasted” in exactly the way we intend. Instead, we must collect DNA from several colonies and see whether each one contain the right …
