Cycle Sequencing of Filamentous Phage DNA Using a Biotinylated Primer and ∆Taq DNA Polymerase
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a rapid nonradioactive, double-stranded phage DNA sequencing method using ∆Taq DNA polymerase in cycle reaction for phage peptide-display library screening. This procedure is specific, rapid, sensitive and safe for the sequencing of large numbers of phage peptide-display colonies. In addition, thermal cycle sequencing with this chemiluminescent image detection protocol provides an inexpensive method for completing a large amount of sequencing reactions. Consequently, this method is especially useful for those extensively working on peptide mimics using phage display libraries.

متن کاملDirected evolution of novel polymerase activities: mutation of a DNA polymerase into an efficient RNA polymerase.
The creation of novel enzymatic function is of great interest, but remains a challenge because of the large sequence space of proteins. We have developed an activity-based selection method to evolve DNA polymerases with RNA polymerase activity. The Stoffel fragment (SF) of Thermus aquaticus DNA polymerase I is displayed on a filamentous phage by fusing it to a pIII coat protein, and the substra...
متن کاملMutant Taq DNA polymerases with improved elongation ability as a useful reagent for genetic engineering
DNA polymerases are widely used for DNA manipulation in vitro, including DNA cloning, sequencing, DNA labeling, mutagenesis, and other experiments. Thermostable DNA polymerases are especially useful and became quite valuable after the development of PCR technology. A DNA polymerase from Thermus aquaticus (Taq polymerase) is the most famous DNA polymerase as a PCR enzyme, and has been widely use...
متن کاملAmpliTaq DNA polymerase, FS dye-terminator sequencing: analysis of peak height patterns.
Taq DNA polymerases in which the phenylalanine is substituted by a tyrosine at position 667 (Taq F667Y) are members of a new class of DNA polymerases that incorporate chain-terminating dideoxyribonucleoside triphosphates (ddNTPs) much more efficiently than the wild-type Taq DNA polymerase. Improved incorporation of ddNTPs into DNA during cycle sequencing using AmpliTaq DNA polymerase, FS (Taq-F...
