Description
Pfu DNA polymerase is a thermostable DNA polymerase isolated from Pyrococcus furiosus Vc1. It catalyzes the DNA-dependent polymerization of nucleotides into duplex DNA in the 5’ → 3’ direction and exhibits 3’ → 5’ exonuclease (proof reading) activity. Pfu DNA polymerase is the ideal choice for a variety of techniques requiring high-fidelity DNA synthesis by PCR reaction. It can apply to cloning, gene expression, site-directed mutagenesis and etc.
Bioneer Pfu retaining 94-99% of its thermostable activity after 1 hour at 95°C. Pfu DNA Polymerase is devoid of terminal transferase activity and generates blunt-ended PCR products.
