| Bioactivity | T4 UvsX Recombinase helps initiate DNA replication on a double-stranded DNA template by catalyzing synapsis between the template and a homologous DNA single strand that serves as primer. T4 UvsX Recombinase greatly amplifies the snap-back (hairpin-primed) DNA synthesis that is catalyzed by the T4 DNA polymerase holoenzyme on linear, single-stranded DNA templates[1]. |
| Name | T4 UvsX Recombinase |
| Transport | Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere. |
| Storage | Please store the product under the recommended conditions in the Certificate of Analysis. |
