a) a DNA primer
b) DNA polymerase
c) the use of four separate sequencing reactions for each template
d) the use of electrophoresis to separate DNA chains based on size
e) the used chemically modified dNTPs
f) all of the above
During PCR amplification in preparation for DNA sequencing, why were there different colors at the 3’ ends of the fragments produced? (What did these four colors represent?)
