Impact of PCR
“ PCR has transformed molecular biology
through vastly extending the capacity to
identify, manipulate and reproduce
DNA.”
Components include:
Heat-stable DNA polymerase (Taq
polymerase)
Two Primers (DNA oligonucleotides)
Deoxynucleotides –dATP, dTTP, dCTP,
dGTP
DNA template

One PCR cycle: What the products
really looks like…
Template Strand
4 DNA strands
Template Strand
8 DNA strands
How does PCR work?
Three cycles…
16 DNA strands
otice the production of double stranded, shortened PCR products (target sequence) that sp
he two primers. Our target sequences will contain the LUX AB genes.
How does PCR work?
Four cycles…
32 DNA strands
The number of DNA strands doubles after each cycle. Target sequence predominates.
