Application Features
DNA polymerase comprising substantially the same amino acid sequence as that of Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase, excluding the N-terminal 280 amino acid residues of Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase. Exonuclease-free, N-terminal deletion mutant of Taq DNA polymerase. Used in combination with a very low level of a thermostable DNA polymerase exhibiting a 3′-exonuclease activity (Pfu, Vent, or Deep Vent) for long PCR.
