Research and DevelopmentPCR - The Underlying Technology Q1: what is the function of each Template DNA: The sample DNA that contains the target sequence, which is being amplified. The heat is added to separate the strands of the original double strand. Primers: Short fragments of DNA containing.... Primers attach to sites on the DNA strands that are at either end of the segment you want to copy. They are powerful tools for copying very specific DNA sequeces since there is almost no chance that they will target the wrong sites. Taq Polymerase: Polymerase molecules read the DNA code then attach matching nucleotides to create DNA copies. DNTP's: nucleoside triphosphates containing deoxyribose. DNTP's are the building blocks for DNA.
denature(95 for 30 sec): The DNA double helix separates, creating two single-stranded DNA molecules. Anneal(57 for 30 sec): The single-stranded DNA molecules naturally attempt to pair up. Extend (72 for 30 sec): The DNA polymerase is activated. When DNA polymerase locates a primer attached to a single DNA strand, it begins to add complementary nucleotides onto the srtand. It continues until it gets to the end of strand and falls off. final Step (72 for 3 min): Holds the temperature and ends the cycle. Then it continues to do 29 more cycles, to produce over a billion fragments that contain only the target sequence and only sixty copies of the longer length molecules. Final Hold(4):
