Taq polymerase is an enzyme that is used by scientists in the polymerase chain reaction because it is stable at high temperatures. Large amounts of a sample of DNA are necessary for molecular and genetic analyses, and the polymerase chain reaction is used to amplify very small amounts of DNA.
The first DNA polymerase evolved for speed and sensitivity. KAPA2G Fast DNA Polymerase is a second-generation (2G) enzyme engineered for higher processivity and speed, offering significantly faster extension rates than wild-type Taq polymerase.In addition to speed, KAPA2G Fast provides higher yields and sensitivity than competitor enzymes across a broad range of targets.its include KAPA2G Fast or KAPA2G Fast HotStart DNA Polymerase (5 U/Î¼L), KAPA2G Buffer A (5X, with 1.5 mM MgCl 2 at 1X) or KAPA2G Buffer M (5X, MgCl 2 -free), and MgCl 2 (25 mM). Kits are available with and without dNTP Mix (10 mM each).
