Which of the following is not an application of PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) ?

A

Gene amplification

B

Purification of isolated protein

C

Detection of gene mutation

D

Molecular diagnosis

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
• Protein is not the target of PCR. Hence, plays no role in its purification.
• PCR is used for making multiple copies of the gene. Hence PCR is used for Gene amplification.
• PCR-based assays have been developed that detect the presence of gene sequences of the infectious agents.
• It is also used in detecting mutations.
