Product information

The AmpliScribe™ T7 High Yield Transcription Kit is specially formulated to use high concentrations of NTPs, that can be inhibitory to other in vitro transcription systems. AmpliScribe High Yield Transcription reactions can produce >20-fold more full-length RNA transcript than conventional in vitro transcription reactions. For example, the AmpliScribe T7 Kit yields approximately 5-7.5 mg/ml of 1.4-kb full-length control RNA in 30-120 minutes, respectively, using 1 µg of template DNA (Figure. 1).

Applications

  • High-yield synthesis of RNA from DNA cloned downstream from a T7 RNA polymerase promoter, for microinjection, RNA interference, or antisense experiments.
  • Structural and functional studies of splicing, processing, heterogeneous nuclear RNAs, tRNAs, viral RNAs, and ribozymes. 1
  • Production of fluorescent 2-, biotinylated 3-, or digoxigenin 4- labelled RNA.

Features

  • High yield. Produce microgram amounts of RNA from all templates—synthesise both long (Figure. 2) and short RNA using only one kit. 5
  • Sensitive. Produce microgram amounts of RNA from as little as 1 ng of template.
  • Scalable. Increase the reaction size to produce milligram amounts of RNA.
  • Flexible. Substitute a labelled nucleotide for one of the supplied NTP solutions.
  • Convenient. RNase inhibitor included.

Note: Because of the very high concentration of NTPs used in AmpliScribe reactions, these kits are not recommended for preparing high specific-activity radiolabelled RNA probes.

Figure 1. The AmpliScribe™ T7 High Yield Transcription Kit is specially formulated to consistently produce >20-fold more RNA than a conventional T7 in vitro transcription reaction.
Figure 2. An AmpliScribe™ T7 High Yield Transcription reaction produces full-length, long RNA transcripts. Aliquots from standard 20 µl AmpliScribe T7 High Yield Transcription reactions were loaded onto a denaturing 1% agarose-formaldehyde gel 6 and stained with ethidium bromide. The size of the RNA transcripts and RNA yields (in parentheses) were: Lane 1, 3.0 kb (185 µg); lane 2, 4.0 kb (178 µg); lane 3, 5.0 kb (176 µg); lane 4, 6.0 kb (169 µg); lane M, RNA size marker.
