The Ultimate Reverse Transcriptase for Flawless cDNA
Description
UltraScript Reverse Transcriptase from PCR Biosystems is engineered for exceptional performance in cDNA synthesis. This enzyme is a modified MMLV reverse transcriptase that has been designed for increased thermal stability and robust cDNA synthesis, even with difficult templates. It offers high yields and full-length cDNA products from a wide range of RNA samples, including those with secondary structures or low abundance transcripts.
- Unbiased representation of 5’ and 3’ mRNA transcript ends
- Reduced RNase H activity
- Thermostable reverse transcriptase 45 °C to 55 °C
- Includes advanced RNase inhibitor
- High cDNA yields from as little as 4 pg template RNA
- Accurate reverse transcription of GC-rich templates
- Sensitive detection of low copy number transcripts
- Advanced buffer chemistry including Mg and dNTPs
- Both premixed or separate oligo cDNA synthesis kits available
UltraScript® Reverse Transcriptase is a thermostable and extremely active modified MMLV reverse transcriptase (RTase) for cDNA synthesis1. The reaction temperature can be increased up to 55 °C providing higher specificity and efficient transcription of GC-rich RNA regions with a high secondary structure. The RTase is blended with an advanced RNase inhibitor preventing degradation of RNA by contaminating RNase. UltraScript® Reverse Transcriptase is not inhibited by ribosomal and transfer RNAs, making total RNA an ideal substrate.
