Glycerol-based · Ready to order

T7 RNA Polymerase
Glycerol-based.

A highly processive enzyme that shows specificity for its double-stranded promoter sequence (5′ TAATACGACTCACTATAG 3′) and catalyzes the 5′→3′ synthesis of RNA. Purified using our ArtPure™ proprietary purification process, yielding a >99% pure, animal origin-free product free of contaminating proteinases, RNases and DNases — with no added enzyme inhibitors.

Definitions

Activity (U/µl): One enzyme unit incorporates 1 nmol of soluble RNA nucleotides into insoluble polymeric RNA per hour at 37°C.
Purity: Evaluated by SDS-PAGE, where the integrated peak area of the RNA Polymerase is compared to other protein peaks in the same lane.
RNA yield: Quantification of total RNA products after in vitro transcription and RNA purification, compared to leading suppliers.
dsRNA by-products: Quantification of double-stranded RNA by-products using a dsRNA-specific ELISA, compared to leading suppliers.

Storage & handling.

Optimal storage conditions ensure prolonged enzyme function.

Storage upon receipt

Our T7 RNA Polymerase is stable at −20°C for up to 12 months in the glycerol-based supplied buffer. For extended storage, we recommend aliquoting in smaller volumes, freezing at −80°C and avoiding repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Storage buffer

50 mM Tris-HCl, 100 mM NaCl, 20 mM DTT, 1 mM EDTA, 50% glycerol, 0.1% Triton X-100, pH 7.9.
