Recombinant DNA polymeraset from archaebacteria as well as isolated DNA coding for such polymeraset are provided. The isolated DNA is obtained by use of DNA or antibody probet prepared from the DNA encoding T. litoralis DNA polymerate and the T. litoralis DNA polymerate respectively. Also provided are meshocs for producing recombinant archaebacteria thermostable DNA polymerase and methods for enhancing the expression of such polymeraset by identifying, locating and removing introns from within the DNA coding for such DNA polymerases.
