Thermus Aquaticus DNA Polymerase Enzyme

Taq DNA Polymerase (recombinant form of the enzyme from the thermophilic eubacterium Thermus aquaticus strain YT-1) consists of a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight 94 kDa. It is a highly processive 5'-3' DNA polymerase lacking 3'-5' exonuclease activity. The enzyme is highly purified and is free of nonspecific endo- and exonucleases. This Taq DNA polymerase has a nontemplate-dependent activity, which adds a single deoxyadenosine (A) to the 3' ends of PCR
products (3'-A overhangs). This property allows easily and efficiently to ligate the PCR products in TA cloning vectors. Amplification of target DNA fragments from 100 bp to 4 Kb can be achieved with this enzyme.

Small volumes of Thermus Aquaticus DNA Polymerase enzyme vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS663066 is an enzyme targeting Thermus Aquaticus DNA Polymerase. Also known as Thermus aquaticus (Taq) DNA polymerase, recombinant.
