For DNA to precipitate down when ethanol added it needs a higher salt concentration which will allow it to precipitate more accurately, hence this salt is given in form of Na acetate which is the best salt for the purpose or else NaCl
pH of sodium acetate buffer is 4.6 and most of the proteins have 4.8 isoelectric pH (pI), so buffer maintains the pI of casein in the casein estimation from milk
potassium acetate (KAc) is added, which does three things: a. Circular DNA is allowed to renature. Sheared cellular DNA remains denatured as single stranded DNA (ssDNA). b. The ssDNA is precipitated, since large ssDNA molecules are insoluble in high salt. c. Adding sodium acetate to the SDS forms KDS, which is insoluble. This will allow for the easy removal of the SDS from your plasmid DNA.
You can find acetate in many foods since it plays more than one role such as cheese and vinegars.
addition of calcium chloride to a cell suspension promotes the binding of plasmid DNA to the cell surface ,which can then pass into the cell.
When this occurs, the membranes potenial drops, as potassium and sodium diffuse with their gradient.
sodiom acetat reaction with membrane protein and cause that persipitate and help to dna isolation
to neutralise the alkaline conditions.
In plasmid isolation RNA behaves as an unwanted material so to separate it out RNAase is required which breaks down the RNA. This is done to get pure quality of the product.
The role of NaCl or sodium chloride in RNA isolation is part of the denaturing process. It is often called the wash step.

Plasmid isolation involves growing the plasmid under conditions that are suitable for genes to come into play. For example the gene for ampicillin resistance; the bacteria with plasmids are placed with ampicillin so their genes can be seen for those who survived. Sodium hydroxide acts a detergent in the extraction process. A detergent's main role is to break down cell walls and cell membranes. How so? They act as poking holes into membranes. However, for the isolation of plasmid, the NaOH acts

it reduces the availability of solvents. that is dissociation of H+ ond OH- ions takes place. which makes the macromoleules to condence or crowd. and let to precipitate

The role that tris-HCI plays in plasmid isolation is to maintain the pH of the solution. This prevents degradation of the plasmids. Tris stands for the organic compound, tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane, which is a common pH buffer. HCl is a salt acid called hydrochloride. This is added as a buffer as well to add stabilization.
It splices the genome or plasmid in a specific location (EcoRI).
The actual role of phenol chloroform isoamyl alcohol in a plasmid DNA extraction is to purify the DNA. The alcohol will act in part as a detergent.
