Problems solved by technology

[0005] Existing amplification reagents are not effective in terms of product uniformity and yield, which is manifested in samples with poor quality, such as formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples, cell-free DNA (cfDNA), etc., and When the sample input amount is low (less than 0.1ng), the sensitivity of the reagent is not enough, and the target area cannot be well amplified
Existing amplification reagents have poor compatibility when amplifying different TM value systems, and these defects have a great impact on subsequent sequencing library construction

Abstract

The invention provides a Taq DNA polymerase mutant and application thereof. The Taq DNA polymerase mutant is an amino acid sequence formed by insertion, substitution or depletion of one or more aminoacids in an amino acid sequence of Taq DNA polymerase shown as SEQ ID NO. 1, or by addition or deletion of one or more amino acids in the sequence of SEQ ID NO. 1. Compared with Taq DNA polymerase shown as SEQ ID NO. 1, the amino acid sequence has enhanced amplification sensitivity and increased yield. The Taq DNA polymerase mutant has higher sensitivity and yield than original Taq DNA polymeraseand is also suitable for multiple amplification of low-quality samples.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to a Taq DNA polymerase mutant and application thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, high-throughput sequencing technology has been widely used due to its lower price, more comprehensive and in-depth analysis of the whole genome, and is of great significance in scientific research, disease diagnosis and treatment. In many practical applications, the entire genome does not need to be sequenced, but only specific genomic regions need to be analyzed. Targeted sequencing technology is a high-throughput sequencing technology for specific library construction and sequencing of specific target sites in the genome. At present, targeted sequencing can be achieved in two ways, one is targeted probe capture sequencing, and the other is amplicon sequencing. Amplicon sequencing is to design primers for the genomic region of interest, perform PCR amplification, enrich the target region...
