Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Described herein are variant pol6 polymerase having at least having at least two substitutions, wherein at least one of the substitutions is at position S366 of SEQ ID NO: 2. The disclosed polymerases may be coupled to alpha-hemolysin nanopores, and may be used in nanopore-based sequencing apparatuses.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An isolated polypeptide having a DNA polymerase activity comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 1, wherein the amino acid sequence having at least 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO: 1 comprises at least two amino acid substitutions relative to SEQ ID NO: 2, wherein one of said at least two amino acid substitutions corresponds to S366 of SEQ ID NO: 2 and wherein said amino acid corresponding to position S366 is substituted with A or L. 2. The isolated polypeptide of claim 1 , wherein said at least two amino acid substitutions comprises a set of amino acid substitutions selected from the group consisting of: S366A+N535L; S366L+G553S+F558P; S366A+N535L+A547M; S366A+P542E+N545K; S366A+P542E+I652Q; S366A+N535L+T529M; S366A+N535L+I652Q; S366A+N535L+N545K; S366A+N535I+I652Q; T651Y+S366A+A547F; A547F+A610T+S366A; S366A+T647G+A547F; T529M+S366A+A547F; T647E+S366A+A547F; N545K+S366A+A547F; S366L+F478L+A596S+L690M; S366A+N535L+I652Q+T529M; S366A+S365A+P368G+G603T; S366A+N535L+I652Q+A547Y; S366A+N535L+A547M+T647G; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545K; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545R; T529M+S366A+A547F+N552L; T529M+S366A+A547F+Y629W; S366A+N535L+A547M+T647G+S360G; S366A+N535L+I652Q+A547Y+K655G; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+Y629W; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+Y225L; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+Y225F; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+K655F; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+N552L; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545R+M531A; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545R+G539Y; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545R+V658L; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+Y225L+D657R; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+Y225L+N552L; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+Y225L+I652G; T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+Y225L+I652Q; and T529M+S366A+A547F+N545L+Y225L+N552M. 3. The isolated polypeptide of claim 1 comprising S366A+T529M+N545L+A547F. 4. The isolated polypeptide of claim 3 further comprising at least one substitution selected from the group consisting of: a.
