Invitrogen™ Taq DNA Polymerase, recombinant
Description
Includes
Taq DNA Polymerase (5U/μL); 10X PCR buffer (200mM Tris-HCl pH 8.4, 500mM KCl); Magnesium Chloride (50mM)
Taq DNA Polymerase, recombinant, is a thermostable enzyme that synthesizes DNA from single-stranded templates in the presence of dNTPs and a primer. This recombinant enzyme is purified from the cloned Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase gene expressed in E. coli and consists of a single polypeptide with a molecular weight of 94 kDa. It has a 5' to 3' DNA polymerase activity and a 5' to 3' exonuclease activity.
Features
- A choice of recombinant or native enzyme
- Amplification of PCR products up to 5 kb in size
- Enzyme is licensed and qualified for PCR
Applications
- Amplification of DNA from complex genomic, viral, and plasmid templates
- RT-PCR
- Sequencing ssDNA
- Cycle sequencing
Notes
- One unit of Taq DNA Polymerase is the amount of enzyme required to incorporate 10 nmoles of deoxyribonucleotide into DNA in 30 minutes at 74°C.
- For superior PCR performance, DreamTaq DNA Polymerase is recommended.
