hi there,
I want to decrease my extension temperature to 60 centigrade.how many bps per second does TAQ do extension?
thank you in addvance.
what is the activity of TAQ at 60 centigrade?

beckman-coulter recommends an extension temperature of 60C for 4 minutes for cycle sequencing with the genomelab dtcs kit (they use taq). this can generate up to about 900-1000 bases (not necessarily all readable).
this is not to say that taq doesn't work faster (in fact, i'm sure that it does work faster) but this works out to ~250 bases/minute or ~4 bases/second.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
My target sequence has high GC% in middle and high AT% in the terminal.
