What are the Limitations of PCR?

1= Contamination risk 2=Primer complexities 3= Primer-binding site complexities 4= Amplifies rare species 5=Detection method

Nested PCR differ Multiplex PCR:

Nested PCR: in this type of PCR the Two pairs (instead of one pair) of PCR primers are used to amplify a fragment. First pair amplify a fragment similar to a standard PCR, and have Very low probability of nonspecific amplification.

Multiplex PCR: Multiplex PCR is a variant of PCR which enables simultaneous amplification of many targets of interest in one reaction by using more than one pair of primers. The use of multiple, unique primer sets within a single PCR reaction to produce amplicons of varying sizes specific to different DNA sequences.

RAPD PCR procedure:

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) is a PCR based technique for identifying genetic variation. It involves the use of a single arbitrary primer in a PCR reaction, resulting in the amplification of many discrete DNA products. It does not require any specific knowledge of the DNA sequence of the target organism.

Advantages of Adenosine monophosphate deaminase (AMPD)

AMP deaminase (AMPD; EC 3.5.4.6) catalyzes hydrolysis of the amino group from the adenine ring of AMP resulting in production of inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP) and ammonia. This reaction helps to maintain healthy cellular energetics by removing excess AMP that accumulates in energy depleted cells. Furthermore, AMPD permits the synthesis of guanine nucleotides from the larger adenylate pool. This enzyme competes with cytosolic 5'-nucleotidases (c5NT) for AMP. Adenosine, a product of c5NT is a vasodilator, antagonizes inotropic effects of catecholamines and exerts anti-platelet, anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive activities.

Hot start PCR:

This is a technique that reduces nonspecific amplification during the initial set up stages of the PCR. This technique may be performed manually by heating the reaction components upto the melting temperature (e.g, 95°C). Before adding the polymerase, specialized enzyme systems have been developed that inhibit the polymerase's activity at ambient temperature. This is done either by the binding of an antibody or by the presence of covalently bound inhibitors that only dissociate after a high-temperature activation step. DNA PolymeraseEubacterial type I DNA polymerase, Pfu.

Differentiate between the each Step of PCR:

1= Denaturation: This is the First regular cycling event and consists of heating the reaction to 93°C - 98°C for 2045 seconds. It causes melting of DNA template yielding single strands of DNA.

2= Annealing: In this The reaction temperature is lowered to 40-65°C for 20-40 seconds. Annealing of the primers to the single stranded DNA template.

3= Extension: At this step the DNA polymerase synthesizes a new DNA strand complementary to the DNA template strand by adding dNTP's. The temperature at this step depends on the type of DNA polymerase used. Taq polymerase has its optimum activity temperature at 7080°C. Commonly 72°C is used.

Applications Southern blotting:

Southern blotting technique is used to detect DNA in given sample. DNA finger printing is an example of southern blotting. Used for paternity testing, criminal identification, victim identification. To isolate and identify desire gene of interest. t is mostly used in the identification of viral infection and certain bacterial infections.

Applications of western blotting:

2= Detecting different isoforms of proteins. 2= Detecting protein–protein interactions. 3= Detecting protein–DNA interactions. 4= Detecting post-translational modification. 5= Detecting proteins' subcellular localization. Western blot is often used in research to separate and identify proteins. In this technique a mixture of proteins is separated based on molecular weight, and thus by type, through gel electrophoresis.
