Rai™ Taq DNA Polymerase is a high-performance recombinant enzyme designed to enhance the amplification of DNA in PCR applications. Rai™ Taq DNA polymerase combines the robust properties of Thermus aquaticus Taq DNA polymerase with the processivity-enhancing DNA binding domain. The fusion of Taq DNA polymerase and domain results in improved speed, fidelity, and reliability.
Product Source
An E. coli strain carrying a recombinant fusion of Thermus aquaticus YT-1 Taq DNA polymerase gene and DNA binding domain gene.
Unit Definition
One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that will incorporate 15 nmol of dNTP into acid-insoluble material in 30 minutes at 75°C.
Reaction Conditions
See Protocols section for detailed information.
Application Features
• Routine PCR applications
• Colony PCR
• Primer Extension
• Improved performance (compared to Taq DNA polymerase) under challenging PCR conditions, including high temperatures, complex templates, and high inhibitor concentrations.
• More accurate and longer templates
• Taq DNA Polymerase shows deoxynucleotidyl transferase activity, often leading to the addition of extra adenines at the 3′-end of PCR products.
