DNA analysis is crucial for identifying individuals and their relatives, using technologies like PCR, electrophoresis, and ...

Henry Erlich, Children’s Hospital Oakland Research Institute Still dedicated to making the technique work, Cetus Corporation scientists David Gelfand and Susanne Stoffel purified a thermostable DNA ...

The technique, now a staple of every molecular biology lab, uses the thermostable Taq DNA polymerase to extend short single-stranded synthetic primers using the target DNA or cDNA as a template ...

The team focused on T7 DNA polymerase’s thioredoxin binding domain (TBD), which has a structure similar to that of most thermostable polymerases, including Taq. Thioredoxin, which is ubiquitous in ...
