Invitrogen™ AccuPrime™ Pfx DNA Polymerase
Description
Includes
AccuPrime Pfx DNA Polymerase (100μL, at 2.5U/μL) is provided with 10X AccuPrime reaction mix (1mL) that contains dNTPs and a separate vial (1mL) of 50mM MgSO4. Reagents are provided for 200 amplification reactions of 50μL each.
AccuPrime Pfx DNA Polymerase is ideal for high-fidelity amplification of DNA fragments for downstream applications such as cloning and mutagenesis. High fidelity is provided by a proprietary enzyme preparation containing recombinant DNA polymerase from Thermococcus species KOD with proofreading (3'→5' exonuclease) activity. Platinum anti-Pfx DNA polymerase antibodies inhibit polymerase activity, providing hot-start capabilities for improved PCR specificity (see figure). Thermostable AccuPrime accessory proteins enhance specific primer-template hybridization during every cycle of PCR, increasing specificity, yield, and robustness over Platinum Pfx alone.
Benefits of AccuPrime Pfx DNA Polymerase
- Greater than 26 times higher fidelity than Taq DNA polymerase
- Amplification of fragments up to 12 kb
- Minimized PCR optimization
Applications
- Amplification of DNA from complex genomic, viral, and plasmid templates
- RT-PCR
- High-fidelity PCR
- Hot-start PCR
Notes
- AccuPrime Pfx DNA Polymerase is especially effective where very high levels of fidelity are required.
- The 10X AccuPrime Pfx reaction mix contains MgSO4, dNTPs, and thermostable proteins that enhance specific primer-template hybridization during each PCR cycle.
