Bst DNA Polymerase

Bst DNA Polymerase is an enzyme derived from the large fragment of Bacillus stearothermophilus DNA Polymerase I. It contains 5´- 3´ DNA polymerase activity and strong strand displacement activity but lacks 5´- 3´ exonuclease activity. The strong strand displacement activity enables Bst DNA Polymerase to synthesize DNA at a constant temperature making it an ideal enzyme for Loop-Mediated Isothermal DNA Amplification (LAMP). Two optimized buffers are available that are formulated to deliver the best amplification speed, yield, salt tolerance and sensitivity. The Inhibitor-Tolerant Bst Buffer is specifically designed for high performance when using crude samples such as sputum or saliva.
