Question

List the PCR reaction components and the function of each component (5 total)

Kate Jaros · Accepted Answer

Target DNA: DNA you want to amplify
Primer: anneals to SSNDA, provides starting point for Taq polymerase
Nucleotides: building blocks for DNA
Taq Polymerase: extends primer to copy the DNA
Buffer solution: maintains pH for enzymatic activity
