  • Thermostable nucleic acid polymerase from
    Patent number: 8008054
    Abstract: A purified thermostable enzyme is derived form the thermophilic archaebacterium Thermococcus gorgonarius. The enzyme can be native or recombinant, retains approximately 90% of its activity after incubation for two hours at 95° C. in the presence of stabilizing agents and possesses 3?-5? proofreading exonuclease activity. Thermostable DNA polymerases are useful in many recombinant DNA techniques, especially nucleic acid amplification by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 3, 2010
    Date of Patent: August 30, 2011
    Assignee: Roche Molecular Systems, Inc.
