ABSTRACT:
A purified thermostable enzyme is derived from the bacterium Thermus species sps17. The enzyme has DNA polymerase activity, reverse transcriptase activity, and optionally, 5'.fwdarw.3' exonuclease activity. The enzyme can be native or recombinant, and can be used with selected primers and nucleoside triphosphates in a temperature-cycling chain reaction where at least one nucleic acid sequence is amplified in quantity from an existing sequence.
