NZY Ribonuclease Inhibitor
Opis
NZY Ribonuclease Inhibitor is a recombinant protein purified from Escherichia coli that inhibits the activity of ribonucleases (RNases; EC 3.1) of the pancreatic type. The protein is useful in any application where eukaryotic RNase contamination is a potential problem. It is not active against RNase 1, RNase T1, RNase T2, S1 nuclease and RNase H.
In first-strand cDNA synthesis experiments, 40 units of protein in a 20 µL reaction mixture protect the template RNA, improve total cDNA yields and increase the percentage of full length cDNA.
The presence of NZY Ribonuclease Inhibitor does not affect the use of RNase H after first-strand cDNA synthesis. NZY Ribonuclease Inhibitor requires 0.5 to 1 mM DTT (not provided) in the reaction system to maintain activity. The storage buffer of this protein contains 8 mM DTT, but additional DTT is required if volume of the inhibitor in the reaction mixture is less than 1/8 of the total volume.
Features
