Perfect for multiple displacement amplification

  • High fidelity - highly accurate replication
  • Extreme processivity - capable of generating large fragments
  • Isothermal amplification - no need for a thermocycler
phi29 DNA Polymerase is the replicative polymerase from the Bacillus subtilis phage phi29 (Φ29) (1). This polymerase has exceptional strand displacement and processive synthesis properties (2). The polymerase has an inherent 3´→5' proofreading exonuclease activity (3).

Notes
  • The presence of active reducing reagent in the reaction buffer is critical for this enzyme. While the reaction buffer supplied with the enzyme contains DTT, older buffer stocks or stocks that have been repeatedly frozen and thawed should be supplemented with 4 mM DTT to obtain maximal activity.

FAQs
Tech Tips
  • DTT in the reaction buffer can oxidize quickly with >-20°C storage temperatures, extended storage, or multiple freeze/thaws, which can reduce amplification efficiency of phi29 DNA Polymerase.  Older buffer stocks or stocks that have been repeatedly frozen and thawed should be supplemented with 4 mM DTT to obtain maximal activity.
