7. You are tasked with amplifying a fragment of interest from a sample of genomic DNA by using PCR. a) List the components that need to be included in any standard PCR, give the function of each. b) A PCR is typically performed in an automated thermo cycling machine. Give the three steps required in each cycle, and explain the function of each. c) The figure below represents a step during the first PCR cycle. Indicate the polarities of both DNA strands and the primers. Use arrows to indicate the direction of synthesis of the new strands. Primer Primer d) You want to PCR amplify only the DNA region indicated in the block. Design a suitable forward and reverse primer each 12 bp in length, give the primers sequences 5′ – 3′. 5′...GCCAGTGCAGCTAGTCGGAAGTC............CCAGTATGGCGATAGACGTTAC... 3′ 3′...CGGTCACGTCGATCAGCCTTCAG............GGTCATACCGCTATCTGCAATG... 5′ 8.
