Pfu DNA Polymerase Recombinant Protein | PF0212 recombinant protein
Recombinant Pfu DNA Polymerase
Sterile liquid formulation.
Introduction: Pfu DNA polymeraseenzyme is found in the hyperthermophilic archaeonPyrococcus furiosus, where it functions in vivoto replicate the organism's DNA. In vitro, Pfu is used to swiftly amplify DNAin the Polymerase Chain Reaction, where the enzyme serves the central function of copying a new strand of DNA during each extension step. Pfu DNA polymerase has superior thermostability and 'proofreading' properties compared to other thermostable polymerases. Unlike Taq DNA polymerase, Pfu DNA polymerase possesses 3' to 5' exonuclease proof reading activity, meaning that it works its way along the DNA from the 5' endto the 3' endand corrects nucleotidemisin corporation errors. Pfu DNA polymerase-generated PCRfragments will have fewer errors than Taq-generated PCR inserts. As a result, Pfu is more commonly used for molecular cloning of PCR fragments than the historically popular Taq. Pfu DNA polymerase is superior for techniques that require high-fidelity DNA synthesis, but can also be used in conjunction with Taq polymerase to obtain the fidelity of Pfu with the speed of Taq polymerase activity.

Product Notes
The PF0212 pol (Catalog #AAA142406) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. 1. Ideal for high-fidelity amplification. 2. 3'-5' exonuclease activity provides a low error rate. 3. One of the most thermostable DNA polymerases known. 4. Lack of extendase activity means no unwanted 3' overhangs. 5. Optimal for blunt-end PCR cloning. 6. Optimum temperature near 75 degree C. 7. 95% active after 1-hour incubation at 98 degree C. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PF0212 pol for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Pfu DNA Polymerase, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
