Description: |
YB-TaqPlus DNA Polymerase* is a
mix of thermostable enzymes isolated from Thermus aquaticus.
YB-TaqPlus catalyses 5’→3’ synthesis of
DNA. The enzyme has no 3’→5’ proofreading, but possesses low 5’→3’
exonuclease activity. Unlike to usual Taq, YB-TaqPlus
can amplify longer DNA fragments up to 8 kb.
Properties of YB-TaqPlus.

Applications: |
- PCR (primer
extension, DNA amplification)
- RT-PCR
- DNA
labelling with radionucleotides, or modified nucleotides
|
Features:
|
- Robust
enzyme suitable for most of cases
- Each 500
units of enzyme are supplemented with 0.25ml of DNA-Softner
