Description
ExcelTaq™ Taq DNA Polymerase is a recombinant thermo-stable Taq DNA polymerase expressed and purified from an E. coli strain carrying the cloned gene. With a high DNA synthesis rate and high thermo-stability, ExcelTaq™ Taq DNA Polymerase is suitable for common and specialized PCR applications.
Features
5'→3' DNA polymerase activity
5'→3' exonuclease activity
No detectable 3'→5' exonuclease (proofreading) activity
Generates PCR products with 3’-dA overhangs
Thermo-stable – half-life lasts for more than 40 min at 95°C
Applications
Routine PCR
Amplification of DNA fragments up to 8 kb
Generation of PCR products for TA cloning
