Glycerol-Free Taq HS High Conc. DNA Polymerase

Cat. # MDX170 VOLUME UNITS 20 μ L 1,000 500 μ L 25,000

No Loss of Activity After Lyophilization (Right) Glycerol-Free Taq HS High Conc. DNA Polymerase was lyophilized with its reaction buffer and stored at 37°C for 1 month. Lyophilized enzyme ( red ) was tested in PCR amplification and compared with the enzyme stored at -20°C, not lyophilized ( blue ). Results demonstrate that the Glycerol-Free Taq HS is not affected by lyophilization and subsequent storage at ambient temperature, fully retaining its activity when rehydrated. Glycerol-Free Taq HS High Conc. DNA Polymerase can be used for generating 3’-dA-tailed DNA fragments as it has terminal transferase activity and naturally leaves a 3’ terminal adenine making it ideal for ‘sticky end’ ligation of sequencing adapters during NGS library preparation. Glycerol-Free Taq HS High Conc. DNA Polymerase (MDX170) is supplied as a blend of high‑performance glycerol‑free Taq DNA polymerase with a Taq hot-start antibody.

STEP 5 ADAPTER LIGATION

Glycerol-Free T4 DNA Ligase (HC) (MDX200) is a high concentration enzyme (50 U/ μ L) that catalyzes the formation of a phosphodiester bond between adjacent 5’ phosphate and 3’ hydroxyl groups in duplex DNA. The enzyme efficiently joins blunt and cohesive ends and repairs single-stranded nicks in duplex DNA. Glycerol-Free T4 DNA Ligase (HC)

Glycerol-Free T4 DNA Ligase (HC) is free of detectable exo– and endonuclease activities. Glycerol-Free T4 DNA Ligase (HC) was incubated of for 16 hours at 37°C with 1 µ g of HindIII-digested λ DNA (Lanes 2 and 3) and supercoiled pUC19 DNA (Lanes 5 and 6). The results show no detectable exo- and endonuclease activities that may affect the ligation efficiency of the enzyme.
