An amplicon is a piece of DNA or RNA that is the source and/or product of natural or artificial amplification or replication events. It can be formed using various methods including polymerase chain reactions (PCR), ligase chain reactions (LCR), or natural gene duplication.
In PCR, two short oligonucleotides (PCR primers) are designed such that each is complementary to the 3â²-end of one of the two target strands at the region to be amplified: the two PCR primers define the amplicon. The region of the template bound by the primers is amplified in a series of cycles (Figure 1).
