Background
Pfu DNA Polymerase is a thermostable enzyme that replicates DNA at 75°C. It catalyzes the polymerization of nucleotides into duplex DNA in the 5´→3´ direction in the presence of magnesium. The enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 90,000 daltons as estimated from the predicted amino acid sequence and exhibits 3´→5´ exonuclease (proofreading) activity. Pfu DNA Polymerase is recommended for use in PCR and primer extension reactions that require high fidelity.
Components
Storage Solution : 5 U/ul Pfu DNA Polymerase, 20 mM Tris-HCl, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1% Tween20, 0.1% triton X100, 1 mM DTT, 100 mM KCl, 50%Glycerol、pH 8.2 @ 25°C
10* Reaction Buffer: 200 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.8) , 20 mM MgSO4, 100 mM KCl, 100 mM (NH4) 2SO4, 1% Triton X-100, 1 mg/ml nuclease-free BSA
Guidelines
Note: 1. It is critical to withhold Pfu DNA Polymerase until after the addition of dNTPs; otherwise, the proofreading activity of the polymerase may degrade the primers, resulting in nonspecific amplification and reduced product yield.
2. Assemble on ice.
