Description
The ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcriptase is a recombinant Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (M-MLV) reverse transcriptase – an RNA dependent DNA polymerase capable of generating first strand cDNA using an RNA template. It is designed to reduce RNase H activity and create better thermal stability. The ExcelRT™ Reverse Transcriptase is able to routinely synthesize first strand cDNA >8 kb at 37~50°C.
Features
- High yield
- Thermostable, up to 50°C, during first strand synthesis
- High processivity, generating cDNA up to 8 kb
- Reduced RNase H ribonuclease activity
Application
- Generation of first strand cDNA from total RNA or mRNA.
- Suitable for generating cDNA from RNA with strong secondary structure which can be reduced at temperature up to 50°C.
Storage
