Cica Geneus phi29 DNA Polymerase Set

Ultra-High Fidelity Polymerase for Whole Genome Amplification (WGA)

The Cica Geneus® phi29 DNA Polymerase Set is a high-performance enzyme kit designed for whole genome amplification (WGA), rolling circle amplification (RCA), and multiple displacement amplification (MDA). Derived from Bacillus subtilis phage phi29, this enzyme features exceptional strand displacement activity, high processivity, and 3′→5′ exonuclease proofreading for superior amplification fidelity — ideal for single-cell genomics and ultra-low DNA input scenarios.

Key Features
  • Extreme strand displacement activity for robust isothermal DNA amplification
  • Ultra-processive and high-yield enzyme for long fragment synthesis
  • High-fidelity proofreading via inherent 3′→5′ exonuclease activity
  • Capable of amplifying genomic DNA from a single cell
  • Suppresses nonspecific amplification and removes contaminating DNA
  • Validated for circular DNA (RCA) and human gDNA (MDA)
Applications
  • Whole Genome Amplification (WGA)
  • Rolling Circle Amplification (RCA)
  • Single-cell genome studies
  • Multiple Displacement Amplification (MDA)
  • Low-input DNA amplification (as low as 1 pg template DNA)
