DNA Polymerase I, Large (Klenow) fragment was originally derived as a proteolytic product of E.coli DNA polymerase that retains polymerase and 3’ —> 5’ exonuclease activity

  • Removal of 3’ overhangs or fill-in of 5’ overhangs to form blunt ends
  • Lacks 5’ —> 3’ exonuclease activity
  • Generates probes using random primers
  • Second strand cDNA synthesis

    Traditional Cloning Workflow
DNA Polymerase I, Large (Klenow) Fragment is a proteolytic product of E. coli DNA Polymerase I which retains polymerization and 3'→ 5' exonuclease activity, but has lost 5'→ 3' exonuclease activity (1). Klenow retains the polymerization fidelity of the holoenzyme without degrading 5' termini.
Highlights

 

Product Source
An E. coli strain that contains the E. coli polA gene that has had its 5'→3' exonuclease domain removed.

Notes
  • Protocol for blunting ends by 3' overhang removal and 3' recessed end fill-in: 
    • DNA should be dissolved in 1X NEBuffer 1-4 or T4 DNA Ligase Reaction Buffer supplemented with 33 μM each dNTP. Add 1 unit DNA Polymerase I, Large (Klenow) Fragment per microgram DNA and incubate 15 minutes at 25°C. Stop reaction by adding EDTA to a final concentration of 10 mM and heating at 75°C for 20 minutes.
  • Elevated temperatures, excessive amounts of enzyme, failure to supplement with dNTPs or long reaction times may result in recessed ends due to the 3´→ 5´ exonuclease activity of the enzyme.
  • When DNA Polymerase I, Large (Klenow) Fragment is used to sequence DNA using the dideoxy method of Sanger et al., 1 unit/5 μl reaction volume is recommended.
  • DNA Polymerase I, Large (Klenow) Fragment is also active in all four NEBuffers and T4 DNA Ligase Reaction Buffer when supplemented with dNTPs.
