    Abstract: Provided are nucleic acids encoding engineered polymerases comprising at least one modification in a motif A and/or at least one modification in a motif B of the polymerase and engineered polymerases encoded by the nucleic acids. Also provided are engineered DNA polymerases comprising a variant of SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2, or SEQ ID NO:3, the variant being at least 80% identical to SEQ ID NO:1, SEQ ID NO:2 or SEQ ID NO:3 and comprising an amino acid substitution at one or more positions selected from the group consisting of L408, Y409, P410, R484, A/L485, and I486. Methods, vectors, kits, and compositions comprising the nucleic acids and compositions, methods and kits comprising the engineered polymerases are also provided.

    Abstract: Provided are engineered DNA polymerases exhibiting modified functionality, and polynucleotides encoding same. Modified features include: (1) reduced catalytic activity in the presence of magnesium ions and/or (2) reduced affinity for primed template nucleic acid molecules in the absence of cognate nucleotide, and an ability to discriminate between cognate and non-cognate nucleotides under low salt conditions. Sequencing By Binding™ procedures employing the engineered polymerases have certain advantages. The engineered polymerases can have other uses as well.

    Abstract: Provided are sequencing-by-binding methods of detecting cognate nucleotides using a crippled DNA polymerizing enzyme that possesses the ability to bind the next correct nucleotide downstream of a primer in a template-dependent fashion, but does not possess the activity needed to promote phosphodiester bond formation. Use of the crippled DNA polymerase permits interrogation of one nucleotide at a time, without incorporation of any nucleotide. Labeled nucleotides, such as fluorescently labeled nucleotides, can be used in conjunction with the crippled DNA polymerase to establish cognate nucleotide identity in a rapid manner.
