    Lambda DNA Amplification by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Introduction/ Background* Since its introduction in 1985‚ polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has become a powerful tool in molecular genetic analysis. Today‚ it is used for applications such as cloning‚ analysis of DNA from ancient specimens‚ and analysis of human DNA for forensic applications. PCR is a test-tube DNA replication system for making many‚ many copies of‚ or amplifying‚ a defined segment of DNA. Using PCR‚ a selected target

    two cyclists was guilty‚ 4 different forensic tests were conducted. Because genetic blueprints are unique‚ DNA is key when attempting to convict an individual. Since DNA testing is very sensitive‚ one must conduct these tests carefully. A technique called Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) is used to make millions of copies of the DNA without destroying it. Then‚ a restriction enzyme cuts the DNA into different fragments called reaction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) at specific binding sites.

    Point mutation is an error at a particular point on the DNA molecule. Since the changes occur in DNA‚ in order to fix the mutation‚ scientists have to find out where something went wrong in the DNA structure and how to fix it. Technology improved and in recent years‚ we got new skills and we are able to change natural changes of DNA for our profit. It is still being worked on‚ but scientists can do a lot of impressing things with DNA structure now. Point mutations might initiate very dangerous changes
