HyperScribe™ All in One mRNA Synthesis Kit (ARCA, T7, poly(A))
HyperScribe™ All in One mRNA Synthesis Kit (ARCA, T7, poly(A)) is designed for quick production of ARCA capped and poly(A) tailed mRNA in vitro. Capped mRNA is synthesized by co-transcriptional incorporation of Anti-Reverse Cap Analog (ARCA, Catalog No. B8175) using T7 RNA Polymerase. The capping of ARCA ensures high translation efficacy. After a brief DNase I treatment to remove the template DNA, capped mRNA is poly(A) tailed with Poly(A) Polymerase. Polyadenylation (i.e. addition of Poly(A) tail) plays an important role in the stabilization of RNA in eukaryotes and enhances the efficiency of translation initiation.
RNA synthesized using this kit has many applications in biological experiments, such as in vitro translation, antisense RNA and RNAi experiments, RNA vaccines, RNA structure and function studies, ribozyme biochemistry, RNase protein experiments and probe-based hybridization blots.
The kit contains sufficient reagents to carry out 25 reactions, 20 μL each time. Up to 50 μg of RNA can be generated with 1 μg of control template per standard reaction.
An upgraded version of this product is available with higher yield (~100 μg), please check out K1406 HyperScribe™ Co-transcription mRNA Synthesis Kit Plus (ARCA, T7) for more details. (Note: it does not include the reagents for the poly A tailing, please incorporate the poly A sequence in your plasmid or primer).(1) Capped RNA Synthesis with ARCA | |
