Phire® Hot Start II DNA Polymerase is faster, extremely robust, and capable of amplifying long DNA fragments with high yields. Phire® Hot Start II DNA Polymerase incorporates a dsDNA-binding domain which allows short extension times (10 to 15 s/kb), improves yields, and increases fidelity 2-fold compared to Taq DNA polymerase. In addition, the Hot Start technology allows complete reactivation of the enzyme in “zero-time” at standard cycling temperatures. This combination of features makes the polymerase an ideal solution for routine and high throughput PCR applications. Phire® Hot Start II DNA Polymerase delivers superior performance in conventional thermal cyclers as well as in fast instruments, such as the Piko® Thermal Cycler.

Direct PCR Kits save time and cost by allowing amplification of DNA directly from the source material. Direct PCR is based on Thermo Scientific Phire® Hot Start II DNA Polymerase and Phusion® Hot Start II High-Fidelity DNA Polymerase. These fusion enzymes are exceptionally fast, robust and highly tolerant of many PCR inhibitors present in unpurified sample material. This allows reliable amplification in challenging conditions where conventional DNA polymerases are completely inhibited.

Pfu DNA Polymerase, derived from the hyperthermophilic archae Pyrococcus furiosus, has superior thermostability and proofreading properties compared to other thermostable polymerases. It has a molecular weight of 90 kDa and can amplify DNA targets up to 2 kb. The elongation velocity is 0,2~0,4 kb/min (70~75 °C). Pfu DNA Polymerase possesses 3' to 5' exonuclease proofreading activity that enables the polymerase to correct nucleotide misincorporation errors. This means that Pfu DNA Polymerase-generated PCR fragments will have fewer errors than Taq-generated PCR inserts. Using Pfu DNA Polymerase results in blunt-ended PCR products, which are ideal for cloning into blunt-ended vectors. Pfu DNA Polymerase is superior for techniques that require high-fidelity DNA synthesis.

Phusion® High Fidelity DNA Polymerase generates PCR products with an accuracy and speed unattainable with a single enzyme, even on the most difficult templates. The structure and characteristics of Phusion® High Fidelity DNA Polymerase make it a superior choice for cloning, and sets the standard for PCR performance with an error rate 50-fold lower than that of Taq DNA polymerase, and 6-fold lower than that of Pfu DNA polymerase. In addition, Phusion® High Fidelity DNA Polymerase possesses processivity 10-fold greater than Pfu DNA polymerase.

Supplier: Thermo Fisher Scientific

Taq DNA Polymerase is a highly thermostable DNA polymerase from the thermophilic bacterium Thermus aquaticus. The enzyme catalyses 5'→3' synthesis of DNA, has no detectable 3'→5' exonuclease (proofreading) activity and possesses low 5'→3' exonuclease activity. In addition, Taq DNA polymerase exhibits deoxynucleotidyl transferase activity, which frequently results in the addition of extra adenines at the 3'-end of PCR products. Native Taq DNA polymerase is preferred for amplification of bacterial DNA sequences homologous to those found in E.coli. Native Taq DNA polymerase stabilised with BSA is often the best choice when amplifying DNA samples of lower purity, e.g. genomic DNA from mouse tail.

Supplier: G-Biosciences

Taq DNA Polymerase is a highly thermostable recombinant DNA polymerase derived from the thermophile Thermus aquaticus. The molecular weight of the recombinant protein is 94 kD. The Taq Polymerase is able to amplify DNA up to 5 kb with an elongation velocity of 0,9 to 1,2 kb/min at 70 to 75 °C. The error rate of this Taq Polymerase is ~2,2×10⁻⁵ nucleotide⁻¹ cycle⁻¹. Taq DNA polymerase catalyses the 5’→3’ synthesis of DNA. The enzyme has no detectable 3’→5’ proofreading exonuclease activity, and possesses low 5’→3’ exonuclease activity, which results in a 3’-dA overhang on the PCR product
