Phi29 DNA Polymerase
-
- Application
- DNA Amplification (DNA Amp)
- Characteristics
- Phi29 DNA Polymerase is a highly processive polymerase which exhibits a strong strand-displacement function. These functions allow for highly efficient isothermal amplification of circular or linear DNA templates via rolling circle amplification (RCA), multiple displacement amplification (MDA) and/or whole genome amplification (WGA). Phi29 DNA Polymerase has extremely high fidelity due to its inherent 3'→5' exonuclease activity and can amplify from very small amounts of starting templates.
- Components

- Unit Definition
- One unit is defined as the amount of Phi29 DNA Polymerase that is required to incorporate 0.5 pmol of dNTP into acid insoluble material in 10 minutes at 30°C.
