Enzyme POGIL-PCR
... PCR is a technique where millions of copies of a specific segment of DNA can be made from one original copy. IN this method, the target DNA molecule is subjected to temperatures over 95° C to make the double-stranded DNA separate. The temperature is then lowered slightly to allow primers to anneal b ...

Point mutation
A point mutation, or single base modification, is a type of mutation that causes a single nucleotide base change, insertion, or deletion of the genetic material, DNA or RNA. The term frameshift mutation indicates the addition or deletion of a base pair. A point mutant is an individual that is affected by a point mutation.Repeat induced point mutations are recurring point mutations, discussed below.
