Invitrogen
Description
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 (Figure 1). Thermostable AccuPrime™ accessory proteins enhance specific primer-template hybridization during every cycle of PCR, increasing specificity, yield, and robustness over Platinum® Pfx alone. With AccuPrime™ Pfx DNA Polymerase you'll:
- Achieve greater than 26 times higher fidelity than Taq DNA polymerase
- Amplify fragments up to 12 kb
- Minimize PCR optimization
Applications: Amplification of DNA from complex genomic, viral, and plasmid templates; and RT-PCR. AccuPrime™
Pfx is especially effective where very high levels of fidelity are required.
