Enzymes used in molecular cloning


1. Polymerase- The first requirement of a molecular cloning to produce or isolate DNA of interest from the genomic sequence. One of the easiest process to achieve it is by amplifying the foreign DNA with site specific primers. A details of these steps will be discussed in future lecture.
