| ARTICLES RELATED TO replicating | | | |  replicating: Encyclopedia II - Polymerase chain reaction - PCR in practicePCR is used to amplify a short, well-defined part of a DNA strand. This can be a single gene, or just a part of a gene. As opposed to living organisms, the PCR process can copy only short DNA fragments, usually up to 10 kb (kb=kilo base pairs=1000 base pairs). DNA is double-stranded, and therefore, it is measured in complementary DNA building blocks (nucleic acids) called base pairs. Certain methods can copy fragments up to 40 kb in size, which is still much less than the chromosomal DNA of a eukaryotic cell--for e ...

| | | | replicating: Encyclopedia II - Polymerase chain reaction - History PCR was invented by Kary Mullis while working for Cetus in December 1983. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1993 for this achievement, only seven years after his colleagues at Cetus first reduced his proposal to practice. Mullis's idea was to develop a process by which DNA could be artificially multiplied through repeated cycles of duplication driven by an enzyme called DNA polymerase.
DNA polymerase occurs naturally in living organisms, where it functions to duplicate DNA when cells divide in mitosis and meiosis. Polymer ...

| | | | replicating: Encyclopedia II - Polymerase chain reaction - Uses of PCR PCR can be used for a broad variety of experiments and analyses. Some examples are discussed below.
Polymerase chain reaction - Genetic fingerprinting.
Genetic fingerprinting is a forensic technique used to identify a person by comparing his or her DNA with a given sample, such as blood from a crime scene can be genetically compared to blood from a suspect. The sample may contain only a tiny amount of DNA, obtained from a source such as blood, semen, saliva, hair, or other organic material. Theoretically, ...
