Silver turns up the A–C : In the presence of Ag I ions, a DNA polymerase incorporated deoxyadenosine (from dATP) at the site opposite cytosine in the template strand to afford the full‐length product (see scheme), meaning that DNA polymerases prefer a C‐Ag I ‐A base pair to the more thermodynamically stable C‐Ag I ‐C base pair.
