How should I set up a PCR reaction using Taq DNA Polymerase? Why is the product a smear when visualized on an agarose gel? Why is there no product when visualized on an agarose gel? What type of DNA ends result from a primer extension reaction or a PCR reaction using Taq DNA Polymerase? The product sequence doesn't completely match the expected sequence. How can this result be improved? When should Taq DNA Polymerase be used in a primer extension reaction or for PCR? Does the presence of Ca2+ inhibit PCR reactions? Will the 5'→3' exonuclease activity of Taq DNA Polymerase degrade primers? Can Taq DNA Polymerase be used for nick translation? Quality Control for Current Lot Quality control values for a specific lot can be found on the datacard which accompanies each product. Endonuclease Activity: Incubation of a 50 μl reaction containing 20 units of Taq DNA Polymerase with Standard Taq Buffer with 1 μg of ΦX174 RF I DNA for 4 hours at 75ºC resulted in < 10% conversion to RFII as determined by agarose gel electrophoresis. 5 kb Lambda PCR: 25 cycles of PCR amplification of 5 ng Lambda DNA with 2.5 units of Taq DNA Polymerase in the presence of 200 µM dNTPS, 0.2 µM primers and 1X Standard Taq Reaction Buffer resulted in a specific product. 3´→ 5´ Exonuclease Activity: Incubation of 20 units of enzyme in 20 µl of a 10 nM solution of a fluorescent 5´– FAM labeled oligonucleotide for 30 minutes at 37°C and 75°C yields no detectable 3´→ 5´ degradation as determined by high resolution denaturing PAGE.
