Fig. 4

Gel image (PAGE 20%) shows the results of PEX reactions with 3′-phos-dTTP 5 and 3′-phos-LNA-TTP 10 with the P1/T2 primer/template system and various DNA polymerases. Modified triphosphates were at a final concentration of 200 µM. The following quantities of polymerases and reaction conditions were used: Phusion (2 U), Hemo Klen Taq (8 reactions), Taq (5 U), Bst (8 U), Q5 (2 U), Therminator (2 U), Vent (exo−) (2 U): 60 °C, 1 h; Dpo4 (2 U), Deep Vent (2 U): 55 °C, 1 h; Kf (exo−) (5 U): 37 °C, 1 h. Negative control (T−): No polymerase added. Positive control (T+): with all natural nucleotides and Taq polymerase. All reactions were incubated at adequate reaction temperatures for 1 h. P represents unreacted, 5′-FAM-labeled primer.
