Description:
Therminator™ γ (gamma) DNA Polymerase is a 9°Nm™ DNA polymerase variant with an enhanced ability to incorporate gamma-phosphate labeled dNTPs.

Source:
Therminator γ DNA Polymerase is purified from a strain of E. coli that carries the 9°N (D141A / E143A / W355A / L408W / R460A / Q461S / K464E / D480V / R484W / A485L) DNA Polymerase gene, a genetically engineered form of the native DNA polymerase from Thermococcus species 9°N-7. Developed by LI-COR® Biosciences and derived from Therminator.

Applications:
  • Incorporation of modified nucleotides into DNA
  • DNA sequencing using gamma-phosphate modified nucleotides
Reagents Supplied:
Therminator γ Gamma Reaction Buffer Pack (10X)

Quality Control for Current Lot


Quality control values for a specific lot can be found on the datacard which accompanies each product.

Exonuclease Activity:
Incubation of a 50 μl reaction containing 20 units of Therminator™ γ DNA Polymerase with 1 μg of a mixture of single and double-stranded [3H] E. coli DNA (105 cpm/μg) for 4 hours at 37ºC released < 0.1% of the total radioactivity.

Endonuclease Activity:
Incubation of a 50 μl reaction containing 20 units of Therminator™ γ DNA Polymerase with 1 μg of ΦX174 DNA for 4 hours at 37ºC resulted in < 10% conversion to RFII as determined by agarose gel electrophoresis.
