Polymerase chain reaction
... It is called “polymerase” because the only enzyme used in this reaction is DNA polymerase. It is called “chain” because the products of the first reaction become substrates of the following one, and so on. PCR is a technique which is used to amplify the number of copies of a specific region of DNA ...

... Transposons are mobile DNA elements akin to plasmids in bacteria. They are present in large numbers (500,000 Alu-like transposons in human genome) They are constantly moving around the genome When two Alu-like transposons flank a gene they sometimes transpose the gene too to the new position. ...
