Alkaline phosphatase is a phosphomonoesterase that catalyzes the cleavage of terminal phosphates from nucleic acids. The free 5′-OH can be phosphorylated with polynucleotide kinase and γ32P-ATP to produce γ32P-end-labeled nucleic acids. Linearized cloning vectors can be prevented from recircularizing by dephosphorylation with alkaline phosphatase.
Alkaline phosphatase in 5 mM EDTA, pH 8, will be irreversibly heat inactivated at 75 °C for 10 minutes.
One unit will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of p-nitrophenyl phosphate per min at pH 9.8 at 37 °C.
Solution in 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.2, 50 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 0.1 mM ZnCl2, 50% (w/v) glycerol.
Calf intestinal alkaline phosphatase is used in molecular biology applications to remove 5′-phosphate groups from nucleic acid molecules to prevent self-ligation of DNA fragments and vectors during recombinant DNA manipulations.
