What Is PCR?
• DNA replication gone crazy in a test tube!
• Makes millions of copies of a target sequence from template DNA
• Uses heat-resistant Taq polymerase from Thermus aquaticus
![Page 4: Biotechnology Learning Objectives](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062520/5681588e550346895dc5efa6/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What Is Needed for PCR?
• Template (the DNA you want to amplify for the study)
• Sequence-specific primers flanking the target sequence:
• Nucleotides (dATP, dCTP, dGTP, dTTP)
• Magnesium ions (enzyme cofactor)
• Buffer, containing salt
• Taq polymerase

How Does PCR Work?
• Heat (94°C) to denature DNA strands
• Cool (60°C) to anneal primers to template
• Warm (72°C) to activate Taq polymerase, which extends primers and replicates DNA
• Repeat multiple cycles

Grow? Glow? • These are important Questions…
• What’s the role of the LB (-pGLO) plate?
• On which plates will colonies grow?– It depends on what you plated– What traits will be evident?– Why?
• Which colonies will glow?– Why?

Protein
RNA is synthesized using DNA as the template in a
process called Transcription.
Protein is synthesized from the information in RNA in a process called Translation.
DNA is composed of nucleotides.
RNA is composed of nucleotides.
Protein is composed of amino acids.

DNA can be analyzed by digestion with restriction enzymes
Restriction enzymes are proteins that cut DNA at specific nucleotide sequences.
The restriction enzyme Bsu36I cuts DNA with the sequence CC^TNAGG.
