Applications For all AMV RT catalog numbers: cDNA Library production First strand cDNA synthesis for cloning RNA sequencing RT-PCR High-temperature cDNA Synthesis at up to 58ºC Reagent supplied, with a protocol for cDNA synthesis: AMV Reverse Transcriptase 10X Reaction Buffer (Catalog # ARB 45) At 1X concentration the magnesium ion concentration is only 5 mM. Under this condition, endogenous RNase H activity is minimal. 1X AMV RT Reaction buffer 25 mM TrisHCl, pH 8.3 @ 25ºC 50 mM KCl 2.0 mM DTT 5.0 mM MgCl2 Supplement with other components for cDNA synthesis
Unit Definition
One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to incorporate 1 nmol of dTTP into an acid-insoluble form in 10 minutes at 37ºC using poly(rA)-d(T)12-18 as template primer.
Unit Assay Conditions
0.5 mM [3H]-TTP, 0.4 mM rAn.d(T)12-18, 50 mM TrisHCl, pH 8.3, 40 mM KCl, 6.0 mM MgCl2, and 4.0 mM DTT. AMV RT preparations are diluted in a dilute phosphate buffer and added to the pre-incubated reaction to give linear kinetics.
