DNA Primers
Research News and Information
Definition of 'DNA Primers'Short sequences (generally about 10 base pairs) of DNA that are complementary to sequences of messenger RNA and allow reverse transcriptases to start copying the adjacent sequences of mRNA. Primers are used extensively in genetic and molecular biology techniques. Common names: DNA Primers; Primers, DNA; Oligodeoxyribonucleotide Primers; Primers, Oligodeoxyribonucleotide; Oligonucleotide Primers; Primers, Oligonucleotide |
