Full Name
Ribonuclease Inhibitor
Abbreviated Name-1Ribonuclease Inhibitor
DescriptionRibonuclease Inhibitor is a recombinant human placental protein which specifically inhibits ribonuclease (RNase) A, B and C. In addition, no inhibition of polymerase activity is observed when RNase Inhibitor is used with Taq DNA polymerase, AMV or M-MLV reverse transcriptase, or phage RNA polymerases (SP6, T7, or T3).
SourceE. coli
Purity>95%
StorageStore at -20°C. Avoid exposure to frequent temperature changes.
Unit DefinitionOne unit is defined as the amount of RNase Inhibitor required to inhibit the activity of 5 ng of RNase A by 50%. Activity is measured by the inhibition of hydrolysis of cytidine 2', 3'-cyclic monophosphate by RNase A.
Concentration40,000 units/ml in 20 mM HEPES-KOH (pH 7.5), 50 mM KCl, 8 mM DTT and 50% glycerol.
Quality ControlNo detectable DNase, Endonuclease and RNase contamination.
ApplicationsApplied in procedures where RNase contamination constitutes a problem:
* RT-PCR;
* cDNA synthesis;
* In vitro transcription/translation;
* RNA synthesis;
* Increase yield and activity of polysomes;
* Improvement of in vitro virus replication;
* Improvement of RNA translation in homologous systems;
* Preparation of RNase-free antibody.
* For Non-Clinical Research Use Only *
