1. A modified DNA polymerase that is a modified form of a DNA polymerase obtainable from Carboxydothermus hydrogenoformans, wherein said modified DNA polymerasea. exhibits reverse transcriptase activity in the presence of magnesium ions and/or manganese ions;

  • b. has reduced or no 5′

    -3′

    exonuclease activity;

    c. has substantially no RnaseH activity;

    d. exhibits reverse transcriptase activity in the substantial absence of manganese ions;

    e. has a molecular weight of about 64 to about 71 kDa as determined by SDS polyacrylamide electrophoresis; and

    f. has amino acid sequence SEQ ID NO;

    11.
