| Full Name | |
| Abbreviated Name-1 | Ribonuclease Inhibitor |
| Description | Ribonuclease 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). |
| Source | E. coli |
| Purity | >95% |
| Storage | Store at -20°C. Avoid exposure to frequent temperature changes. |
| Unit Definition | One 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. |
| Concentration | 40,000 units/ml in 20 mM HEPES-KOH (pH 7.5), 50 mM KCl, 8 mM DTT and 50% glycerol. |
| Quality Control | No detectable DNase, Endonuclease and RNase contamination. |
| Applications | Applied 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. |
