    Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) uses a special heat-stable DNA polymerase (Taq polymerase) that is slightly less accurate than DNA polymerase (Pol I) purified from E. coli. Taq polymerase will therefore introduce wrong bases into a growing DNA chain more frequently than will Pol I. In which one or more of the following applications of PCR will this type of inaccuracy be a problem? Explain why. Detection of bacterial DNA in infected tissues from patients. Detection of viral RNA in infected...
