摘要 |
Methods and kits performing reverse transcription and RT-PCR reactions having high fidelity, processivity and DNA polymerase activity are described. The methods involve performance of reverse transcription at an increased temperature with a reverse transcriptase from Simian Immunodeficiency Virus-agm.sab or a variation thereof. The kits of the present invention include a reverse transcriptase from Simian Immunodeficiency Virus-agm.sab or a variation thereof, a DNA polymerase capable of amplifying cDNA under conditions suitable for polymerase chain reaction, and the reagents necessary to carry out both processes. |
