phi29 DNA Polymerase

High-Processivity Replicative Polymerase

phi29 DNA Polymerase is a highly processive replicative polymerase derived from the Bacillus subtilis phage phi29 (Φ29). It features an extraordinary strand displacement capacity, synthesizing up to 70 kb per single binding event with exceptional speed and efficiency.

Exceptional Synthesis Fidelity

Equipped with robust 3' → 5' proofreading exonuclease activity, this polymerase ensures an exceptionally high level of fidelity during long DNA synthesis workflows.
