General description
JumpStart™ REDTaq® DNA Polymerase is Sigma′s high performance Taq DNA Polymerase blended with JumpStart Taq antibody and an inert red dye tracer. Extensive testing with a variety of primers and templates indicates that the performance of JumpStart REDTaq DNA Polymerase is equivalent to, or better than, that of standard Taq polymerase.
Since the red tracer has no effect on the amplification process, a sample can be easily re-amplified such as in “nested PCR”. The presence of the dye also has no effect on automated DNA sequencing; ligase mediated ligations, exonucleolytic PCR product digestion, and transformation. Though exceptions may exist, the dye is generally inert in restriction enzyme digestions. If necessary, the dye can be removed from the amplicon by routine purification methodologies.

Application
JumpStart™ REDTaq® DNA Polymerase has been used in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the amplification of:
- insulin-enterotoxin ricin fusion gene (INS-RTB)
- endothelial cells DNA derived from reverse transcribed RNA
- leg genomic DNA from cricket flies
- mitochondrial gene by conventional PCR[1]
Features and Benefits
- Reduces non-specific amplification
- Increased target yield and specificity
- Higher the amplification irrespective of the target concentration
- Reduce set-up time and eliminate concerns associated with manual or wax hot start methods
- Visual confirmation that the enzyme has been added and that proper component mixing of the reaction has occurred
- Samples can be loaded directly onto an agarose gel for electrophoresis without loading buffers or tracking dyes
- Assembled PCR reactions can be placed at room temperature for up to 2 hours
Packaging
The enzyme is provided with an optimized 10× reaction buffer.
Other Notes
One unit incorporates 10 nmol of total dNTPs into acid-precipitable DNA in 30 min. at 74 °C.
