AtTaq DNA Polymerase (Hot Start)

Ultra pure recombinant protein which is reversibly complex with anti-Taq monoclonal antibody that blocks replication activity of the enzyme at moderate temperatures. Carefully selected anti-Taq antibodies have high thermal stability, providing protection against non-specific primer extension from room temperature to 70°C. Formation of complexes between Taq DNA Polymerase and an anti-Taq antibody forms a basis for automatic “Hot Start” amplification, which allows for the assembly of amplification reactions at room temperature. High stability of the complexes allows enormous increase in amplification specificity, sensitivity and yield in comparison to the conventional amplification assembly method. Increased specificity as a result of reduced amplification artefacts such as primer-dimer formation and mispriming in multiplex amplification. 10X ViBuffer S provided for amplification of more than 5kb amplicon.
