Thermus aquaticus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (991 words)
Thermus aquaticus is a species of bacterium that can tolerate high temperatures; it is the source of the heat-resistant enzyme Taq DNA Polymerase, one of the most important enzymes in molecular biology because of its use in the polymerase chain reaction.
Studies of this extreme thermophilic bacterium that could be grown in cell culture was initially centered on attempts to understand how protein enzymes (which normally inactivate at high temperature) can function at high temperature in thermophiles.
Those who know Mullis such as Thomas J. White agree that it was Mullis who came up with the idea of using Taq polymerase in order to avoid having to add polymerase to the PCR reaction during the thermocycling process.
- Taq DNA Polymerase (642 words)
Since the sequence of Pierce Taq is identical to the sequence of AmpliTaq DNA Polymerase, we expect this value to be the same as that quoted for AmpliTaq DNA Polymerase.
Because the sequence of Pierce Taq is identical to the sequence of AmpliTaq DNA Polymerase, we expect this value to be the same as that quoted for AmpliTaq DNA Polymerase.
According to data generated by DNA sequencing, the sequence of the Pierce Taq gene is identical to the sequence of the AmpliTaq DNA Polymerase gene.
