Engineering processive DNA polymerases with maximum benefit and minimum cost
DNA polymerases need to be engineered to achieve optimal performance for biotechnological applications, which often require high fidelity replication when using modified nucleotides and when replicating difficult DNA sequences.

Preparation of Phi29 DNA polymerase free of amplifiable DNA using ethidium monoazide, an ultraviolet-free light-emitting diode lamp and trehalose. [PDF]
We previously reported that multiply-primed rolling circle amplification (MRPCA) using modified random RNA primers can amplify tiny amounts of circular DNA without producing any byproducts.

Taq DNA polymerase can catalyze non-templated addition of a nucleotide (principally adenosine) to the 3' end of PCR-amplified products. Recently, we showed that this activity, which is primer-specific, presents a potential source of error in genotyping ...

A simple method for in-house Pfu DNA polymerase purification for high-fidelity PCR amplification
Background and Objectives: Pfu DNA polymerase is an enzyme that exhibits the lowest error rate in the 3´ to 5´ exonuclease (proofreading) activity during DNA synthesis in Polymerase Chain Reactions (PCRs).

Translesion DNA Polymerases [PDF]
Living cells are continually exposed to DNA-damaging agents that threaten their genomic integrity. Although DNA repair processes rapidly target the damaged DNA for repair, some lesions nevertheless persist and block genome duplication by the cell's replicase.

Bacteriophage T7 DNA polymerase — Sequenase
An ideal DNA polymerase for chain-terminating DNA sequencing should possess the following features: 1) incorporate dideoxy- and other modified nucleotides at an efficiency similar to that of the cognate deoxynucleotides; 2) high processivity; 3) high ...

Bst polymerase — a humble relative of Taq polymerase
DNA polymerases are a superfamily of enzymes synthesizing DNA using DNA as a template. They are essential for nucleic acid metabolism and for DNA replication and repair.

Organisms possess multiple DNA polymerases (Pols) and use each for a different purpose. One of the five Pols in Escherichia coli, DNA polymerase IV (Pol IV), encoded by the dinB gene, is known to participate in lesion bypass at certain DNA adducts.
