Features

  • Fast addition of 3’-A overhang to blunt ended DNA
  • Uses exonuclease inhibitor so no post PCR purification required


Applications

  • TA cloning techniques where high fidelity is desirable


Description

Proofreading DNA Polymerases such as VELOCITY provide high fidelity, however the resulting PCR product is blunt-ended. This is due to the 3’→5’ exonuclease activity which removes the 3’-A overhangs normally added by Taq DNA polymerase. These 3’-A overhangs are very useful for efficient cloning of these fragments into suitable plasmids (TA cloning), and effectively prevent insert-to-insert ligation, eliminating possible tandem inserts.

The PCR Tailing Mix uses Taq DNA polymerase and an exonuclease inhibitor to add a single terminal A, whilst inhibiting the 3’→5’ exonuclease activity of the proofreading DNA polymerase.
