Summary Introduction
To review:
The impact on a cell by a carcinogen.
Introduction:
Any substance that can trigger the generation of cancerous cells is called a carcinogen. Examples of a few carcinogens are pesticides, tobacco from cigarettes, asbestos that is used for insulating homes, some chemicals like vinyl chloride and benzene, and radiations like alpha, gamma, X-rays, ultraviolet rays, and microwaves have been known to be carcinogenic.

Explain the impact William B. Travis has made.
If PCR was performed on the fragment of DNA shown below using "5'-TAGG-3" and "3'-TCTA-5'" as the primers, how many base pairs long would the PCR product be? To help with this, remember the antiparallel structure of DNA and that primers are complementary and antiparallel to the target sequence that they bind to. Hint: Check out the 5' and 3' labels....they are important!
3’- T A T C C G A C A A T C G A T C G A T T G C C T T C T A A -5’
5’- A T A G G C T G T T A G C T A G C T A A C G G A A G A T T – 3’
When setting up a PCR reaction to act as a negative control for the surface protein A gene... Which primers will you add to the reaction mix? mecA primers, spa primers, mecA primers and spa primers, no primers
What will you add in place of template? sterile water, MRSA DNA, Patient DNA, S. aureus DNA
