Aflp pcr allel specific pcr5

Answer: AFLP PCR - METHODOLOGY

Mini primer pcr application polymerase name methadology 5

Answer: Mini Primer PCR uses a thermostable polymerase (S-Tbr) that can extend from short

Alu pcr 2

Answer: The use of primers from a commonly repeated segment is called Alu-PCR, and can help to

Wga pcr3

Answer: Whole Genome Amplification (WGA) is a method for robust amplification of an entire

timing: 10:30 My paper

  1. multiplex PCR enables the simultaneous amplification in many targets on interest in ………

One reaction

  1. Pcr amplification specificity is ensured by --------(polymerase enzyme)
  2. to clone large genes not possible with conventional PCR.( Long pcr)
  3. Allele-specific PCR used for identifying of SNPs.
  4. In Situ PCR (ISH ) is a polymerase chain reaction that actually takes place inside the cell on a slide.
  5. Assembly PCR is the synthesis of long DNA structures by performing PCR on a pool of long

oligonucleotides .

  1. In sucide is typically used in polegenetics.
  2. PCR used to produce a unique fingerprints of amplified product lengths is called (INTER

SEQUENCE SPECIFIC PCR )

  1. RT pcr is widely used in ----( expression profiling).
  2. in nested pcr -----used to amplify a fragment.( .two pairs of primer).
  3. in molecular technique the RAPD stand for( .Random Amplified Polymeric DNa).
  4. Denaturation temperature:Reduces double stranded molecules to single stranded, 90–96oC,

20-45 seconds.

  1. primer may occur due to the Hybridization of primer each other.
  2. Taq polymerase most commonly used polymerase and code for (Thermus aqauticus)..
  3. WGA is teachnique in which amplifications proceed ___in genome.( Directly at any

location)

  1. In annealing temp is lowered to ___ for 20 - 40 sec.( 40 - 65)
  2. PRIMERS: Primers are single-stranded 18–30 bp long.
  3. ...... Controls for contamination contains all reagents except DNA template.(Blank

reaction).

  1. Source of Taq polerases the Thermus aquaticus
  2. Set of each primers work on the A. high temp

21) What is WGA technique

Answer: Whole Genome Amplification (WGA) is a method for robust amplification of an entire

Q22. RAP stands for?

23) use of methylation in pcr

Answer: Methylation-specific PCR is used to identify patterns of DNA methylation at CpG islands in genomic DNA. Target DNA is first treated with sodium bisulfite, which converts unmethylated cytosine bases to uracil, which is complementary to adenosine in PCR primers.

 Two amplifications are then carried out on the bisulfite-treated DNA: One primer set anneals to DNA with cytosines (corresponding to methylated cytosine), and the other set anneals to DNA with uracil (corresponding to unmethylated cytosine). MSP used in quantitative PCR provides information about methylation state of a given CpG island.

24) chemical ragents which is use in conventional PCR and also give reson why thy are use

Answer: DNA template  Primers  Buffer  MgCl2  Deoxynucleotide triphosphates  DNA polymerase

 Distilled water

25) Write the extention rate and source of Taq. Polymerase Vent and Pfu

Answer: 1) Taq pol extension rate 75 Source T. aquaticus
