Taq DSC 2.0 DNA Polymerase is a thermally stable, processive, 5’→3′ DNA polymerase. The 94 kDa protein possesses an inherent 5’→3′ nick-translation moiety and lacks a 3’→5′ proofreading function. The DSC formulation contains a novel, nucleic-acid based hot-start additive designed to sequester the polymerase during reaction setup and during low-temperature cycling reaction phases.
