The Family DNA polymerases include Tth and Tma DNA polymerase alongside Taq and have 5′-3′ exonuclease activity, but normally lack 3′-5′.

A new study on genetic sequencing finds that DNA replication is not as accurate as was previously thought, which could impact a range of fields, from medicine to the study of evolution. DNA ...

Empirical Bioscience, (formerly known as Syzygy Biotech™), a company that produces high-grade PCR reagents and enzymes, announced today that it has introduced FlashTaq Hot-Start Taq DNA Polymerase, a ...

Single-molecule Taq DNA polymerase dynamics. Science Advances, 2022; 8 (10) DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abl3522 ...

Taq replicates DNA. Polymerase chain reaction, the technique with thousands of uses from forensics to PCR tests to detect COVID-19, takes advantage of Taq. The UCI-led team found that Taq, as it helps ...

It's well-known that Taq rejects any wrong items that land into its proverbial shopping cart – that rejection is the key, after all, to successfully duplicating a DNA sequence.
