What process involves using primer and Taq in detemining whether a person has a certain mutant gene?

The process used is PCR = Polymerase Chain Reaction. PCR used Taq polymerase - an enzyme that adds nucleotides to a primer and brings about the formation of new double stranded DNA. Primers are short sequences of nucleotides that bind to the mutant gene and allow the Taq polymerase to function. The ultimate result of the process is the amplification (creation of several million copies) of the mutant gene. In the absence of the mutate gene, these copies would not be created since the primers do not have anywhere to bind to.


Polymerase chain reaction was developed so that scientists could?

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is used to make many, many copies of DNA. For example, if there is a very small drop of blood at a crime scene, a PCR machine can replicate the DNA over and over and over again so that there is enough of it to make a comparison to a person. Before PCR, if there wasn't a lot of blood, they were out of luck. It was a very brilliant idea. Answer The polymerase chain reaction amplifies small amounts of DNA. Large amounts of DNA are required to perform further analysis such as DNA fingerprinting.
