| Description |
T4 DNA Polymerase catalyzes the extension of a primed DNA template (in the presence of template and primer) in the 5′→ 3′ direction. This D219A mutant T4 DNA Polymerase does not possess either 3'->5’ (proofreading) and 5′→ 3′ exonuclease activities.

| Applications |
Random mutagenesis
|
| Source |
A recombinant E. coli strain carrying a cloned gene 43 (D219A mutant) of bacteriophage T4. |
| Unit Definition |
One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme that will incorporate 10 nmol of dNTP into acid-precipitable material in 30 minutes at 37°C. |
