ACCUZYME™ is a thermostable enzyme possessing 5´-3´ DNA polymerase and 3´-5´ proofreading exonuclease activities, offering high fidelity. ACCUZYME provides high fidelity with an error-rate of 3.0 x 10-6, to give blunt-ended amplicons of up to 5Kb in length. ACCUZYME is supplied with 10x Reaction Buffer containing MgSO4, which provides optimal final reaction conditions (1.5mM Mg2+) for most experiments. In order to allow optimization of reaction conditions, additional MgCl2 is provided.
The specificity and performance of ACCUZYME can be further improved with the use of 2x PolyMate Additive (not included), which is designed for GC or AT-rich DNA, "dirty" templates or sequences with a high level of secondary structure.
Efficient – highly productive target amplification and removal of 3' A overhangs
Accurate – possesses 3' - 5' proofreading exonuclease activity that delivers an error rate of 3.0 x 10-6?for increased PCR fidelity versus Taq DNA polymerase
Sensitive – high-yield amplification from limiting amounts of human, animal and plant template DNA
Robust – developed for reliable amplification of even the most challenging targets, including genomic DNA and GC-rich targets
Flexible – ideal for amplifying any target up to 5 kb from DNA extracted from mammalian tissue samples
Convenient – advanced buffering system minimizes the requirements for PCR optimization, thereby reducing time-to-results and eliminating the cost of unnecessary repeats
