Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A thermostable mutant DNA polymerase; a method for obtaining the thernmostable mutant DNA polymerase by identifying a thermostable mutant polypeptide exhibiting enzymatic activity, wherein the thermostable mutant polypeptide is a variant of DNA polymerase I obtained from Thermus aquaticus ; a polynucleotide, an expression vector, and a host cell encoding the thermostable mutant DNA polymerase; and a method of performing a reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) utilizing the thermostable mutant DNA polymerase, as well as a kit for facilitating the same.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An isolated or purified polynucleotide that encodes a polypeptide having at least 95% identity to residues 13-555 of SEQ ID NO: 26 and contains a mutation at position W550 of SEQ ID NO: 26, wherein said polypeptide has DNA polymerase activity, and wherein said polypeptide comprises at least one other mutation within residues 13-555 of SEQ ID NO: 26. 2. The isolated or purified polynucleotide of claim 1 that has at least one muta…
