PCR can be used to identify rare DNA sequences in DNA libraries by increasing the abundance of a particular sequence.  This is accomplished by subdividing the original library into pools of decreased complexity and screening each pool or group of pools for a given DNA sequence.  A pool that contains the desired clone is subsequently subdivided into smaller pools, each of which is screened using the same PCR protocol that was used for the primary screen. - [Read PCR-Based Screening of DNA Libraries Protocol]

DNA prepared by PCR-mediated gene disruption can be used to transform yeast in gene replacement experiments.  This protocol uses two primers, tailed with approximately 50 nucleotides homologous to the gene of interest, that target insertion of the PCR product to that locus.  Each primer ends with a universal sequence that is designed to amplify various selectable markers from plasmid templates. - [Read PCR-Mediated Gene Disruption: One-Step Method Protocol]

Protocol describes how double-stranded DNA probes, labeled in each strand, are produced in conventional PCRs containing equal concentrations of two primers, a double-stranded DNA template, three unlabeled dNTPs at concentrations exceeding the Km, and one [{alpha}-32P]dNTP at a concentration at or slightly above the Km (2-3 µm) for a thermostable DNA polymerase such as Taq. - [Read Radiolabeling of DNA Probes by the Polymerase Chain Reaction Protocol]

TAIL PCR Protocol. TAIL is a series of reactions that are intended to map where a T-DNA (transfer DNA) has inserted within the genome. The main components of the 3 reactions are the AD (Arbitrary Degenerate) primers, border primers, and DNA from the T-DNA - [Read TAIL PCR Protocol]
