The enzyme was cloned in E.coli and is isolated to be free of unspecific endo- or exonucleases according to the current quality control procedurese. Taq DNA Polymerase is a highly processive 5–3 DNA polymerase that lacks 3–5 exonuclease activity. It consists of a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight of approximately 95 kDa. The enzyme exhibits highest activity at a pH of around 9 (adjusted at 20 °C) and temperatures around +75 °C. Taq DNA Polymerase also accepts modified deoxyribonucleosidetriphosphates as substrates, and can be used to label DNA-fragments either with radionucleotides, digoxigenin, fluorescein or biotin.
The high processivity, absence of exonuclease activity and temperature optima of Taq DNA Polymerase enable the use of this enzyme in DNA sequencing, especially where the resolution of secondary structures plays a major role.
This lower concentration of our recombinant Taq DNA Polymerase allows small amounts of the polymerase to be pipetted more accurately and conveniently. In all other respects, this preparation is identical to our higher concentration (5 U/µl) preparation and can be used for:

• PCR
• RT-PCR
• Other primer-extension reactions, such as sequencing and labeling

Packaging
1 kit containing 4 components
Unit Definition
One unit Taq DNA Polymerase is defined as the amount of enzyme that incorporates 10 nmol of total deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates into acid precipitable DNA within 60 min at +65 °C under the assay conditions stated above.
Unit Assay: Incubation buffer:
67 mM Tris/HCl; pH 8.3/25 °C, 5 mM MgCl2, 10 mM Mercaptoethanol, 0.2% Polydocanol, 0.2 mg/ml Gelatine, 0.2 mM each dATP, dGTP, dTTP and 0.1 mM dCTP.
Incubation procedure:
M13mp9ss, M13 primer (17mer) and 1 µCi (-32P) dCTP are incubated with suitable dilutions of Taq DNA Polymerase in 50 µl incubation buffer at +65 °C for 60 minutes. The amount of incorporated dNTPs is determined by trichloroacetic acid precipitation.
Volume Activity: 1 U/µl
