- Extra Details:
- Purified from an E.coli strain carrying a T4 RNA ligase overproducing plasmid. Catalyses the ATP-dependent intra- and intermolecular formation of phosphodiester bonds between 5'-phosphate and 3'-hydroxyl termini of single-stranded RNA or DNA. The minimal substrate is a nucleoside 3', 5'-diphosphate. Applications: RNA 3'-end labelling (1). Joining RNA to RNA (2). Circularization of oligonucleotides (3). Joining synthetic oligodeoxyribonucleotides (4). Specific modifications of tRNAs (5). Oligodeoxyribonucleotide ligation to single-stranded cDNAs (6). Generation of composite primers to PCR (7). Quality Control: Tested for the absence of exo- and endodeoxyribonucleases and ribonucleases. Concentration: 10-20u/ul. Note: The concentration of ATP in the reaction mixture depends upon the type of ligation reaction (1-7). The final concentration of BSA is usually 0.01-0.1mg/ml (1-7).
