Datasheet: GC-rich PCR DNA Polymerase
Description: GC-rich PCR DNA Polymerase is a high fidelity thermostable polymerase that amplifies target DNA up to 6 kbp in lenght with superior accuracy and yield. The enzyme's 3'-> 5' exonuclease-dependent proofreading activity results in a lower PCR mutation frequency than other commercially available DNA polymerase. The elongation rate and processivity are 5 times and 10 to 15 times higher, respectively, than for Pfu DNA Polymerase, resulting in highly accurate and robust yields in short reaction times. The enzyme has no 5'-> 3' exonuclease activity and generates blunt-ended PCR products suitable for cloning
