Abstract excerpt
Thermostable DNA polymerases isolated from archaeal organisms have not been completely characterized kinetically and require further study if we are to understand both their dNTP binding mechanism and their role within the organism. Here, we demonstrate that the thermostable family B DNA polymerase from Pyrococcus furiosus (Pfu Pol) contains sensitive determinants of both dNTP binding and replicational fidelity...
