제품 설명


YourTaq™ Hot-Start DNA Polymerase, 5 U/µl




제품 번호


BR0202101



제품 특징


Features

  • Exceptionally pure YourTaq Hot Start DNA Polymerase
  • Optimized buffer composition for increased yield of amplification
  • Resistant to PCR inhibitor carry-over
  • Excellent PCR specificity and sensitivity for a broad range of amplicons

Applications

  • Routine and demanding PCR amplification up to 3 kb
  • Suitable for amplification of low target copy number
  • RT-PCR and TA cloning


Description


biotechrabbit™ YourTaq Hot Start DNA Polymerase is optimized for high yield of amplification of 0.1–3 kb DNA targets, even from low copy number. The enzyme shows excellent PCR specificity and sensitivity for a broad range of amplicons. YourTaq Hot Start DNA Polymerase is resistant to PCR inhibitors, such as blood (up to 20%), Ethanol or humic acid enabling PCR amplification from DNA templates with carry-over of PCR-inhibitors.

YourTaq Hot Start DNA Polymerase is a highly pure enzyme. Together with the optimized buffer and high-quality dNTPs (BR0600202) a mix is achieved for the most demanding PCR applications. In addition, the enzyme is suitable for amplification of GC-rich templates (up to 70%) pairing with 5X PCR Enhancer (BR1900201).

Info: Recommended annealing temperature is 2°C above primer Tm (use gradient PCR to optimize the annealing temperature).

Component

Composition

YourTaq Hot Start DNA Polymerase

YourTaq Hot Start DNA Polymerase, 5 U/µl, in storage buffer containing 50% (v/v) glycerol

5X PCR Reaction Buffer

Optimized PCR buffer without magnesium ions

50 mM MgCl2

50 mM MgCl2 in water

 

STORAGE

-30°C to -10°C (until expiry date – see product label)

 
Unit Definition

One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to catalyze the incorporation of 10 nmol of dNTP into acid-insoluble form in 30 minutes at 72°C in the presence of the reaction buffer.

Quality Control
Functional assay

Human genomic DNA was amplified using the DNA Polymerase and specific primers to produce a distinct band of 750 bp.

Self-priming activity

Standard PCR is carried out without primers, using the DNA Polymerase and human genomic DNA. No products were amplified.

Exonuclease assay

Linearized lambda/HindII fragments are incubated with the DNA Polymerase in a 50 µl reaction mixture for 4 h at 37°C. No degradation of DNA was observed.

Endonuclease assay

lambda DNA is incubated with the DNA Polymerase in a 50 µl reaction mixture for 4 h at 37°C. No degradation of DNA was observed.

Nick Activity

Supercoiled plasmid DNA is incubated with the DNA Polymerase in a 50 µl reaction mixture for 4 h at 37°C. No conversion of covalently closed circular DNA to nicked DNA was detected.

E. coli DNA contamination assay

A sample of the denatured DNA Polymerase is analyzed with specific primers targeting the 16S rRNA gene in qPCR for the presence of contaminating E. coli DNA. No E. coli DNA was detectable.


Protocols

Prevention of PCR contamination

When assembling the amplification reactions, care should be taken to eliminate the possibility of contamination with undesired DNA.

  • Use separate clean areas for preparation of samples and reaction mixtures and for cycling.
  • Wear fresh gloves. Use sterile tubes and pipette tips with aerosol filters for PCR setup.
  • Use only water and reagents that are free of DNA and nucleases.
  • With every PCR setup, perform a contamination control reaction that does not include template DNA.
Standard PCR setup

The standard PCR protocol using biotechrabbit reaction buffer provides excellent results for most applications. Optimization might be necessary for certain conditions, such as high GC or AT content, strong template secondary structures or insufficient template purity. In such cases, optimization of template purification (see biotechrabbit nucleic acid purification kits), primer design and annealing temperature is recommended.

The best conditions for each primer-template can be optimized with the following:

  • Choosing the optimal quantities of template and primers
  • Determining optimal concentrations of the enzyme and magnesium ions
  • Optimizing cycling conditions

If unspecific amplification occurs, the amount of DNA Polymerase and the primer concentration can be reduced. Correspondingly, these can be increased when yield is low.

Optimizing magnesium concentration

Many applications use the standard concentration of 1.5–2 mM MgCl2. However, reactions with increased amounts of template (e.g., genomic DNA), primer and nucleotides might require higher MgCl2 concentrations (2–3 mM). A separate 50 mM MgCl2 solution is supplied with the enzyme and can be used to adjust the MgCl2 concentration according to the table below:

Basic Protocol
  • Thaw on ice and mix all reagents well, especially the MgCl2 solution and dNTPs.
  • Keep all reagents and reactions on ice.
  • When setting up multiple reactions, prepare a master mix of water, buffer, dNTPs and polymerase. Prepare enough master mix for one more than the actual number reactions. Alternatively, use biotechrabbit 2X YourTaq Hot Start PCR Master Mix (cat. no. BR0202201)
  • Pipet the master mix into thin-walled 0.2 ml PCR tubes.
  • Add template and primers separately if they are not used in all reactions.
