Description
- Single-stranded specific DNA binding protein (1)
- Helix destabilizing protein (1)
- Ultrapure recombinant protein
Applications
- Reduces formation of secondary DNA structures
- Prevents degradation of single stranded DNA by nucleases
- Prevents inhibition of PCR by template DNA contaminants (2)
- Improves efficiency of DNA amplification by Taq DNA Polymerase (3,4,5,6)
- Replaces Hot Start method by assembling PCR reactions (4,7)
- Stabilizes single-stranded regions of DNA for site-specific mutagenesis
- Aids completion of restriction enzyme digestion
- Improves efficiency of DNA synthesis by T4 DNA Polymerase (8)
- Enhances fidelity of modified T4 DNA Polymerase (8)
Storage Buffer
