Abstract
Thermophilic eubacteria were screened for thermostability of DNA ligases and DNA polymerases. A total of 103 and 248 strains were screened respectively. The strains belonged to four distantly related genera of Thermus, Bacillus, Rhodothermus and Hydrogenobacter. Thermostable DNA ligases were found in 22% of the strains and thermostable DNA polymerase were found in 15% of the strains. Thermus strains gave the highest frequency of both heat tolerant enzymes.
