Used extensively in molecular biology for DNA synthesis and sequencing. Essential in PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) to amplify DNA segments. Applied in cloning techniques to construct recombinant DNA. Utilized in mutagenesis studies to introduce specific changes in DNA sequences. Important for labeling DNA probes in hybridization experiments. Supports research in genetic engineering and biotechnology. Also employed in diagnostic assays for detecting genetic disorders. Helps in studying DNA replication and repair mechanisms.
