LA Taq DNA Polymerase

TaKaRa LA Taq is a mixture of Taq Polymerase with a proofreading polymerase optimized for amplification of long DNA templates. Using TaKaRa LA Taq, routine extension to 20 kb and up to 48 kb is possible on some templates, with less optimization than other long PCR systems. Because of the presence of the proofreading polymerase, the fidelity is significantly better (6.5X) than that of Taq Polymerase alone.

Features

  • Robust amplification of long DNA templates up to 48 kb possible with minimal optimization
  • Longer and more accurate amplification with genomic PCR products
  • High fidelity amplifications
  • Less optimization and greater yields due to more robust enzyme-buffer system than other long polymerases

Components

RR002M

TaKaRa LA Taq DNA Polymerase 250 U (5 U/µL)*
10X LA PCR Buffer II (contains 25 mM MgCl2) 1 mL
dNTP Mixture (2.5 mM each dNTP) 800 µL
 

RR002A

TaKaRa LA Taq DNA Polymerase 125 U (5 U/µL)*
10X LA PCR Buffer II (without Mg2+) 1 mL
25 mM MgCl2 1 mL
dNTP Mixture (2.5 mM each dNTP) 400 µL
*Protocol recommends the use of 2.5 U per 50 µL reaction.

Storage

–20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws of TaKaRa LA Taq and dNTPs. Once thawed, aliquot into separate tubes and store at –20°C.

Products

PCR products generated with LA Taq contain a mixture of 3'-A overhangs and blunt ends which allows >80% cloning efficiency into T-vectors. However, the efficiency of cloning longer products (>5 kb) into T-vectors is quite low.

PCR Performance

Enzyme performance is confirmed by successful amplification of a 35 kb lambda DNA template and a 17.5 kb human genomic DNA template.
