General description: | Taq DNA Polymerase (1 U/μl), dNTPack, comprises Taq DNA Polymerase and a ready-to-use solution of PCR grade nucleotides. Taq DNA polymerase is a highly processive 5′-3′ DNA polymerase that lacks 3′–5′ exonuclease activity. It is stable during prolonged incubations at elevated temperatures (+95 °C). Additionally, it exhibits highest activity at a pH of around 9 (adjusted at 20 °C) and temperatures around +75 °C. It accepts dNTP analogs as substrates. There is no difference in stability or performance when compared to the standard concentration of Taq DNA Polymerase. |

Packaging: | 1 kit containing 5 components |
Unit Definition: | One unit Taq DNA Polymerase is defined as the amount of enzyme that incorporates 10 nmol of total deoxyribonucleosidetripho 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 (α-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 |
