∙ 13y agodNTPs (deoxynucleoside triphosphates) are the building blocks used by DNA polymerase to synthesize new DNA strands during PCR. They provide the necessary bases (A, T, C, G) for complementary base pairing with the template DNA strand. This results in the amplification of the target DNA sequence.

PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a molecular biology technique used to amplify a specific segment of DNA. There are various types of PCR, including quantitative PCR (qPCR) for quantification of DNA, reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR) to amplify RNA, nested PCR for increased specificity, and digital PCR for absolute quantification of nucleic acids.
dNTP (deoxynucleoside triphosphate) is a building block of DNA made up of a deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base (adenine, guanine, cytosine, or thymine). dNTPs are essential for DNA replication and are used by DNA polymerases to add nucleotides to the growing DNA strand during DNA synthesis.
The PCR product are precipitated before sequencing to increase the concentration of tamplet DNA.
PCR made it possible to produce enough copies for reliable tests.
The use of dNTP is PCR and multiplex PCR

Magnesium chloride is a crucial component in the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) as it is required for the activity of the DNA polymerase enzyme. Magnesium ions help stabilize the DNA template-primer complex and are essential for the enzymatic activity of the DNA polymerase, allowing for successful DNA amplification during PCR. The optimal concentration of magnesium chloride can vary depending on the specific DNA polymerase being used and the PCR conditions.
Real-time PCR is a technique used for quantifying DNA in real-time during the PCR process, while reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR) is used to detect RNA by first converting it to complementary DNA (cDNA) using reverse transcriptase enzyme before proceeding with PCR amplification. Real-time PCR allows for monitoring the amplification process as it occurs, while RT-PCR is specifically used for analyzing RNA levels.
Primers in PCR serve as the starting point for DNA synthesis, initiating the amplification process by binding to the target DNA sequence. They provide the necessary template for DNA polymerase to extend and replicate the target sequence during each cycle of the PCR reaction. The specificity of the primers determines which DNA region will be amplified, allowing for targeted amplification of the desired sequence.
An essential cofactor for the DNA polymerase in PCR is Magnesium chloride. Its concentration must be optimized for every primer:template system. Many components of the reaction bind magnesium ion, including primers, template, PCR products and dNTPs. The main 1:1 binding agent for magnesium ion is the high concentration of dNTPs in the reaction. Because it is necessary for free magnesium ion to serve as an enzyme cofactor in PCR, the total magnesium ion concentration must exceed the total dNTP concentration. Typically, to start the optimization process, 1.5 mM magnesium chloride is added to PCR in the presence of 0.8 mM total dNTPs. This leaves about 0.7 mM free magnesium for the DNA polymerase. In general, magnesium ion should be varied in a concentration series from 1.5-4.0 mM in 0.5 mM steps.I just read somewhere that some PCR reagents require free Mg2+
In qualitative PCR specific DNA fragment is detected while in quantitative PCR our target DNA sequence not only is detected but its amount is determined (after reaction we can calculate the amount of DNA we had in our sample)
PCR primer design is crucial for the success of a PCR reaction. Primers must be complementary to the target DNA sequence to initiate DNA amplification. Factors such as primer length, GC content, melting temperature, and primer-dimer formation should be considered during primer design to ensure specific and efficient amplification.
