Klintoon isn't in charge any more - Bush, Ashcroft and Mueller are

That would be polymerase. It's an enzyme which breaks nucleic acids into snippets. The basics behind the assay is to locate and ID lots of snippets which resemble snippets of a known source, and then you can with a high probability, claim to have identified something.

Wasn't PCR invented by that physicist-surfer who won the Nobel Prize (for Chemistry) for the invention?
