Zusammenfassung:Variants of the bacteriophage B103 DNA polymerase are described herein. The variant has improved properties, that include when compared to wild-type Phi29 DNA polymerase, at least one of the following: increased thermostability, improved reaction rate for DNA amplification, reduced background and a reduction of bias. Methods of using the DNA polymerase variant are also described herein.
