Polymerase Chain Reaction or PCR
Chemical structurs of single stranded DNA: 4 types of Nucleotides in DNA
– Adenosine (A)– Guanine (G)– Cytosine (C)– Thymine (T)
Single stranded DNA will form double stranded DNA only with it’s complement: G-C and T-A
Hydrogen Bonding holds strands together
Polymerase Chain Reaction or PCR
RNA is usually single stranded in a cell ; uracyl replaces thymine
Polymerase Chain Reaction or PCR
Polymerase Chain Reaction or PCR
PCR is an exponential processes (y=ex )
step 1 - Denaturation (optimal temperature is 94°C): By heating the DNA, the double strand melts and open to single stranded DNA.
step 2 - Annealing (optimal temperature is 60°C) The single-stranded primers bind to their complementary single-stranded bases on the denaturated DNA.
step 3 - Extension 72°C is the ideal temperature for the Taq polymerase to attach and start copying the template. The result is two new helixes in place of the first.
Polymerase Chain Reaction or PCR
By applying several times this cycle, the quantity of DNA obtained is large enough to perform any analysis. Starting with one DNA molecule after just 20 cycles there will be a million copies and after 30 cycles there will be a billion copies.
The taq-polymerase (Thermus aquaticus ) needs ca. 1 min to synthesise 1 kbp. So the synthesis time depends on the length of your product.
The bacterium Thermus aquaticus was first discovered in several springs in the Great Fountain area of the Lower Geyser Basin at Yellowstone National Park.
Polymerase Chain Reaction or PCR
In PCR, primers are used to determine the DNA fragment to be amplified by the PCR process. The length of primers is usually not more than 30 nucleotides, and they match exactly the beginning and the end of the DNA fragment to be amplified. They direct replication towards each other - the extension of one primer by polymerase then becomes the template for the other, leading to an exponential increase in the target segment.
TTAACGGGGCCCTTTAAA.....…TTTAAACCCGGGTTT pairs with: AATTGCCCCGGGAAATTT........AAATTTGGGCCCAAA
Now, let's say that the above sequences "flank" (are on either end of..) the gene, which includes a long stretch of letters designated as: ..............These are known, absolutely identified to be, the sequence of letters which ONLY flank a particular region of a particular organism's DNA, and NO OTHER ORGANISM'S DNA. This region would be a target sequence for PCR.
The first step for PCR synthesize "primers" of about 20 letters-long, using each of the 4 letters, and a machine which can link the letters together in the order desired - this step is easily done, by adding one letter-at-a-time to the machine (DNA synthesizer). In this example, the primers we wish to make will be exactly the same as the flanking sequences shown above. We make ONE primer exactly like the lower left-hand sequence, and ONE primer exactly like the upper right-hand sequence, to generate: TTAACGGGGCCCTTTAAA.....…TTTAAACCCGGGTTT AATTGCCCCGGGAAATTT.......................> and: <..................................................…TTTAAACCCGGGTTT AATTGCCCCGGGAAATTT........AAATTTGGGCCCAAA
