NOVEL DNA POLYMERASE FROM THERMOANAEROBACTER TENGCONGENESIS

摘要

Disclosed is a DNA polymerase from Thermoanaerobacter tengcongenesis. This enzyme is useful for procedures requiring strand-displacing DNA synthesis such as SDA and for reverse transcription. Included within the scope of the present invention are various mutants (deletion and substitution) that retain the ability to replicate DNA with substantially the same efficiency as the native Thermoanaerobacter tengcongenesis polymerase.
