Jay's debut album on Nu-Groove, Stay Awhile, rocked the Contemporary Jazz Charts for over a year. Soto returns in 2009 with his sophomore release, Mesmerized, produced by Darren Rahn and Grammy winner Michael Broening.
A primer is a short nucleic acid sequence that provides a starting point for DNA synthesis. In living organisms, primers are short strands of RNA. A primer must be synthesized by an enzyme called primase, which is a type of RNA polymerase, before DNA replication can occur.
Since PCR is, basically, replication of DNA in a test-tube, all the usual ingredients needed for DNA replication are required: A template. Primers. DNA polymerase. dNTPs (deoxynucleoside triphosphates used to make DNA). The template is the DNA that contains the target sequence you want to amplify. The primers are synthetic DNA molecules whose sequence matches a region flanking the target you are trying to amplify.
