Step 2: The instructors were provided to test positive and negative for a DNA marker. Step 3: Protocol planner set up the DNA and ran the PCR reactions. PCR Reaction Mix In the PCR reaction mix there is Mix contains Taq DNA polymerase, MgCl2, dNTP's, forward primer, reverse primer. DNA/ primer mix What is in the DNA/ primer mix? Research and Development Specific Cancer Marker Detection - The Underlying Technology (Add a write-up of the information discussed in Week 3's class) (BONUS points: Use a program like Powerpoint, Word, Illustrator, Microsoft Paint, etc. to illustrate how primers bind to the cancer DNA template, and how Taq polymerases amplify the DNA. Screen-captures from the OpenPCR tutorial might be useful. Be sure to credit the source if you borrow images.)
