AccuPrime™ Pfx DNA Polymerase (Invitrogen™)

AccuPrime™ Pfx DNA Polymerase is ideal for high-fidelity amplification of DNA fragments for downstream applications such as cloning and mutagenesis. High fidelity is provided by a proprietary enzyme preparation containing recombinant DNA polymerase from Thermococcus species KOD with proofreading (3´→5´ exonuclease) activity. Platinum™ anti-Pfx DNA polymerase antibodies inhibit polymerase activity, providing hot-start capabilities for improved PCR specificity (see figure). Thermostable AccuPrime™ accessory proteins enhance specific primer-template hybridization during every cycle of PCR, increasing specificity, yield, and robustness over Platinum™ Pfx alone.

With AccuPrime™ Pfx DNA Polymerase you will:
• Achieve greater than 26 times higher fidelity than Taq DNA polymerase
• Amplify fragments up to 12 kb
• Minimize PCR optimization

Applications
Amplification of DNA from complex genomic, viral, and plasmid templates; and RT-PCR. AccuPrime™ Pfx DNA Polymerase is especially effective where very high levels of fidelity are required.
