Clinical oncology: Minimal residual disease; Chromosomal translocations; and Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs). Gene therapy: Gene transfer estimation;and Biodistribution of vector. Gene expression: Cytokines; receptors,....... ANSWER A very important application of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is in the field of forensic science. Sometime a sample of DNA may be too small to be of any use as it is. Thankfully, PCR allows a small sample of DNA to be amplified thus making many more copies of the DNA. Now instead of a small sample you have a large sample. Sample size is very important when involving other forensic techniques such as electrophoresis. (To give an analogy there is not much difference between 4 lbs and 6 pounds. However, if yo amplified both by 10,000, you will see that there is a noticeable difference of 20,000 lbs. PCR makes the difference in weight noticeable so that results of electrophoresis can be analyzed.
Thermostable polymerase, like Taq polymerase, is important in DNA technology because it can withstand the high temperatures used in polymerase chain reaction (PCR). This allows for the rapid amplification of DNA fragments without the need to constantly replenish the enzyme. This polymerase is derived from thermophilic bacteria and is essential for the success of PCR in molecular biology applications.
The polymerase used in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is typically derived from a thermophilic bacterium called Thermus aquaticus. The specific polymerase most commonly used is Taq polymerase, which is known for its ability to withstand high temperatures required for PCR.
In a polymerase chain reaction (PCR), the key components required include DNA templates, primers, nucleotides, and a DNA polymerase enzyme. However, one component that is NOT required for PCR to occur is a living cell, as the reaction can take place in vitro (outside of a living organism).
PCR
Yes, Vent polymerase is a thermostable enzyme. It is derived from the Thermococcus species and is able to withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for use in applications that require high-temperature conditions such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
Polymerase Chain Reaction
PCR stands for Polymerase Chain Reaction, a method used to amplify and copy small segments of DNA.

It is the "polymerase chain reaction" which is a important diagnostic tool for vets
Nucleotides serve as the building blocks for creating new DNA strands during the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). They are incorporated by the DNA polymerase enzyme to extend the DNA strands, allowing for the amplification of specific DNA sequences.
Polymerase chain reaction. It is a technique used in molecular biology to amplify a specific DNA sequence. It involves cycles of heating and cooling to produce millions of copies of a particular DNA fragment.
No, PCR (polymerase chain reaction) uses DNA primers, not RNA primers, in its process.
Unlike Taq DNA polymerase, E.coli DNA polymerase is not heat-stable and will denature during the strand denaturation step of the PCR reaction.
