Description
phi29 DNA Polymerase is the replicative polymerase from the Bacillus subtilis phage phi29 (Φ29). This polymerase is a highly processive polymerase (up to more than 70 kb) featuring strong strand displacement activity, which allows for highly efficient isothermal DNA amplification. phi29 DNA Polymerase also possesses an inherent 3´→ 5' proofreading exonuclease activity, thus the fidelity of the synthesized DNA fragments is very high. 3'-modified primers are highly recommended to reduce the cleavage effect of the exonuclease activity on the primer.
Features
- Strong strand displacement capability
- Continuous synthesis capability
- High fidelity of amplification
Applications
- DNA isothermal rolling loop amplification
- DNA synthesis requiring strong strand displacement
- Rapid replication of plasmids
- Rapid replication requiring high fidelity
Storage
Stored at -20°C for 3 years.
Notes
- 1 x phi29 Buffer: 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 10 mM (NH4) 2SO4, 4 mM DTT. If necessary, the final concentration of 1 mM DTT and 0.2 mg/ml BSA can be added separately to improve the reaction efficiency.
- The optimum reaction temperature of the enzyme is 30℃.
- The enzyme can be inactivated at 65℃ in 10 min.
- Adjust the concentration of dNTP from 100 to 500 μM according to the type of experiments.
- The addition of Yeast Pyrophosphatase to the reaction mixture with phi29 DNA Polymerase may enhance DNA synthesis.
- Thio-modification at the 3' end of the primers can avoid primer degradation.
