Abstract for Pfu DNA Polymerase

Part# 9PIM774
Printed in USA. Revised 10/09.
Instructions for Use of Products M7741 & M7745.

Pfu DNA Polymerase is a thermostable enzyme that replicates DNA at 75°C. It catalyzes the polymerization of nucleotides into duplex DNA in the 5´→3´ direction in the presence of magnesium. The enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 90,000 daltons as estimated from the predicted amino acid sequence and exhibits 3´→5´ exonuclease (proofreading) activity. Pfu DNA Polymerase is recommended for use in PCR and primer extension reactions that require high fidelity.
