It contains FastStart Taq DNA Polymerase for hot start PCR, which significantly improves the specificity and sensitivity of PCR by minimizing the formation of nonspecific amplification products (Chou, Q. et al., 1992, Kellogg, D.E. et al., 1994, and Birch, D.E., 1996).

FastStart Taq DNA Polymerase is a chemically modified form of thermostable recombinant Taq DNA Polymerase that shows no activity up to 75°C. The enzyme is active only at high temperatures, where primers no longer bind nonspecifically. The enzyme is fully activated (by removal of blocking groups) in a single pre-incubation step (95°C, 5 - 10 minutes) before cycling begins. Activation does not require the extra handling steps typical of other hot start techniques.

Sequence-specific detection of PCR products relies on sequence-specific oligonucleotide probes that are coupled to fluorophores. These probes hybridize to their complementary sequence in target PCR products. Probe chemistries that are suitable for use in the LightCycler^® 480 Instrument include single-labeled probes, hybridization probes, and hydrolysis probes. Hybridization and hydrolysis probe chemistries use the so-called FRET principle. Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) is based on the transfer of energy from one fluorophore (the donor or reporter) to another adjacent fluorophore (the acceptor or quencher).
Hydrolysis probe assays can technically be described as homogeneous 5'-nuclease assays, since a single 3'-non-extendable probe, which is cleaved during PCR amplification, is used to detect the accumulation of a specific target DNA sequence (Holland, P. M. et al., 1991). This single probe contains two labels, a fluorescent reporter and a quencher, in close proximity to each other. When the probe is intact, the quencher dye is close enough to the reporter dye to suppress the reporter fluorescent signal (fluorescent quenching takes place via FRET). During PCR, the 5'-nuclease activity of the polymerase cleaves the hydrolysis probe, separating the reporter and quencher. The reporter dye is no longer quenched and emits a fluorescent signal when excited.

The LightCycler^® 480 Instrument can detect hydrolysis probes that are labeled with the reporter dyes LightCycler^® Red 610, LightCycler^® Red 640, LightCycler^® Cyan 500, FAM, or HEX. These labeled hydrolysis probes can be used separately or in combination, which permits either single- or multicolor detection.
