Pfu DNA Polymerase

Pfu DNA Polymerase is a thermostable DNA polymerase isolated from an E. coli strain that carries the pol gene from Pyrococcus furiosus. It is one of the most thermostable DNA polymerases known to have 3’ to 5’ proofreading activity, the enzyme catalyzes DNA systhesis at optimal temperature near 75°C with very low error rate.
