M-MuLV Reverse Transcriptase

  • Synthesis full length copies of cDNA ›10kb
  • Low RNase H activity
  • Recombinant enzyme

M-MuLV Reverse Transcriptase, a recombinant enzyme, is an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase. It is a single polypeptide with an apparent molecular weight of 71 000 daltons. It requires Mg2 for optimal activity. As M-MuLV RT has a lower RNase H activity than AMV reverse transcriptase, it is a better choice for synthesising full-length copies of large mRNA (in excess of 10 kb), under optimal reaction conditions.

Storage
Tris HCl 50mM, pH 8.3, NaCl 0.1M, EDTA 1mM, DTT 5mM, Triton X-100 0.1%, Glycerol 50%(v/v). Temperature -20C.

Incubation buffer
Tris HCl 50mM, pH 8.3, KCl 75mM, MgCl2 3mM, DTT 10mM.

Unit definition
One unit incorporates one nmol of TMP into DE-81 adsorbable form in 10 minutes at 37C using polyA-oligo dT12-18 as a substrate.

Purity
Free of contaminating, non-specific double-stranded and single-stranded endonucleases, exonucleases and ribonucleases. Typically greater than 90% pure by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Activity
200 units/l.
cDNA synthesis activity: M-MuLV RT exhibits superior stability during incubation at 37C. The amount of enzyme required is generally only around 10 units per g of mRNA.
