Details

One unit is the amount of enzyme required to incorporate 1 nmol of dTTP into acid-insoluble form in 10 min at 37°C (4).
  • The only clone truly derived from the avian myeloblastosis virus
  • Maintains the RNA- and DNA-dependent DNA polymerase and RNase H activities
  • RNase H activity can be regulated over a wide range of temperatures
  • Expressed as a very stable, highly active polymer
  • Remarkably robust in cDNA synthesis and RT-PCR
  • Capable of synthesizing cDNA over a wide range of temperatures
  • Ideal for use in RT-PCR, cDNA libraries, and dideoxy-DNA sequencing
Storage Buffer:
200 mM potassium phosphate, pH 7.2, 2.0 mM (v/v) Triton X-100 and 50% (v/v) glycerol.
Assay Conditions:
50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.3, 6.0 mM MgCl2, 1.0 mM, 40 mM KCl, 0.5 mM [3H]dTTP, 0.2 mM poly(rA)ยท(dT)50 in a reaction volume of 50 µl.

Quality Control:
All preparations are assayed for contaminating endonuclease and exonuclease and nonspecific RNase and single- and double- stranded DNase activities.
