Excessive addition split peak formed by the non-templated nucleotide addition property of Taq DNA polymerase after PCR amplification
Because of its non-template addition feature, Taq DNA polymerase can catalyze one or more extra nucleotides onto the 3′ terminus of PCR products. An extra peak is observed at DYS391 locus after the PCR products stored for 4 days at 4°C. To explore the formation mechanism of this artifact, PCR primer...
