ABSTRACT:
A heat-stable RecA mutant protein is obtained by mutation involving either deletion or substitution of at least one amino acid in an amino acid sequence composing an acid region at C-terminal end of a wild type heat-stable RecA protein, and has an improved ability, compared to the wild type heat-stable RecA protein, for contributing to an increase in an amplification specificity of a template nucleic acid in a nucleic acid amplification reaction.
