FAQ - DTI PCR Enzymes

Which enzymes facilitate efficient workflow when analyzing multiple samples by gel electrophoresis after PCR (e.g., genotyping screens)?
We recommend DTI JadeAmp FabTaq Premix (Cat.# DT0201.320). This product is completely premixed, making it easy to prepare PCR reaction mixtures which can be loaded directly on an agarose gel for electrophoresis after the reaction. For an efficient workflow with minimal pipetting, DTI JadeAmp FabTaq Premix contains a green tracking dye. Additionally, a density agent is included to aid in gel loading.

DTI JadeAmp FabTaq Premix can amplify targets up to 10 kb in length, including targets that are GC- or AT-rich. Additionally, PCR products generated with DTI JadeAmp FabTaq Premix can be used directly for restriction enzyme digestion, sequencing, or TA-cloning without the need for further purification.
Which enzymes are suitable for colony PCR?
We recommend DTI CobaltAmp HiFid Taq HS Premix for colony PCR. These enzyme preparations tolerate the presence of substantial bacterial nucleic acid carry-over. Because tracking dye and density agent are included in these master mixes, the PCR reaction mixtures may be loaded directly on an agarose gel for electrophoresis.
Which enzymes are suitable for fast PCR?
DTI CobaltAmp HiFid Taq HS Premix is an economical choice for high-throughput projects. This enzyme is formulated to include high-speed polymerase, optimized buffer, dNTP mixture, gel loading dye (blue), and a density reagent in a 2X premix. Since it requires an extension time of only 10 sec/kb, colony PCR reactions can be completed in less than 1 hour for inserts up to 1 kb.
What precautions should be taken when using an inosine-containing primer?
DTI FabTaq and DTI FabTaq Hot Start Version enzymes are compatible with inosine-containing primers. It is important to note that inosine-containing primers should not be used with PCR enzymes that have 3’→5’ exonuclease activity. When using one of these PCR enzymes, we recommend using mixtures of degenerate primers with A, T, G, and C at the desired position(s) rather than inosine-containing primers when performing degenerate PCR.
What is the terminal structure of DTI FabTaq and DTI FabTaq Hot Start Version enzymes’ amplification product?
DTI FabTaq and DTI FabTaq Hot Start Version enzymes primarily yield amplification products containing 3’-dA overhangs, which facilitates TA cloning.
