คำอธิบาย

General description

Contents
Protector RNase Inhibitor (40 U/μl) in storage buffer: 20 mM HEPES-KOH, 50 mM KCl, 8 mM dithiothreitol, 50% glycerol (v/v), pH approximately 7.6 (+4°C).

Protector RNase Inhibitor inactivates a wide spectrum of RNases, including

• RNase A
• RNase B
• RNase T2

Thus, Protector RNase Inhibitor can help prevent RNase degradation in any application where RNases could cause problems. For instance, it can:

• protect mRNA during cDNA synthesis reactions, RT-PCR (in conventional thermal cyclers and qPCR systems), or in vitro transcription/translation reactions
• protect viral RNA during in vitro virus replication
• inhibit RNases during RNA isolation and purification
• be used in RNase protection assays
• help prepare RNase-free antibodies

Note: Protector RNase Inhibitor does not interfere with enzymes commonly used to prepare or analyze RNA.

Application

Protector RNase Inhibitor may be used to:

• Protect mRNA in cDNA synthesis reactions, RT-PCR (in conventional thermal cyclers and qPCR systems), e.g., with the LightCycler^® Instruments, in vitro transcription/translation system, RNase Protection Assay, in vitro RNA synthesis[1][2]
• Protect viral RNA during in vitro virus replication
• Inhibit RNases during RNA isolation and purification[3][4]
• Help prepare RNase-free antibodies
• Synthesize RNA probes for in situ hybridization[5][6]

It is useful in any application where RNases could be a potential problem.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Protector RNase Inhibitor (20 U/ 20 μl reaction) inhibits RNase A up to 1 ng, RNase B up to 160 pg and RNase T2 up to 0.03 U/μl reaction volume.


RNase H is not inhibited by Protector RNase Inhibitor.


Heat inactivation: > 65 °C

Features and Benefits

• Rely on a thermostable RNase inhibitor: Protector RNase Inhibitor remains stable even when using thermostable reverse transcriptases such as Transcriptor Reverse Transcriptase.
• Benefit from a wide range of reaction conditions: Protector RNase Inhibitor is active at pH 5.0 to 9.0 and at temperatures between +25°C to +55°C (partial activity is still measureable at +60°C).
• Eliminate interference in different RNA analysis applications: Maintain performance even when adding at 16-fold higher than the standard concentration.
• Insist on a highly-purified preparation: Each batch is function tested using techniques such as quantitative RT-PCR to ensure the absence of endonucleases, ribonucleases, or nicking activity, according to the current quality control procedures.

Preparation Note

Working concentration:

• 5 to 10 U in One-step RT-PCR
• 25 to 50 U in Two step RT-PCR
• 20 U for in vitro transcription

You may use higher concentrations of Protector RNase Inhibitor in RT-PCR if you suspect that RNase contamination causes certain samples to be difficult to amplify. The inhibitor does not interfere with the reaction. (In a test system, even a 16-fold higher concentration
of inhibitor did not interfere with RT-PCR.)

Analysis Note

Each lot of Protector RNase Inhibitor is function tested with the Titan One Tube RT-PCR Kit and the LightCycler DPD Kit. Protector RNase Inhibitor is also tested for contaminating activities as described below.
Test buffer: 50 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM MgCl₂, 0.1 mM EDTA, 7 mM β-Mercaptoethanol; pH 7.5 (+37°C).
Absence of endonucleases: 1 μg EcoR I/Hind III*-fragments of λDNA is incubated with Protector RNase Inhibitor in 50 μl test buffer at +37°C for 1 hour. The amount of inhibitor that causes no alteration in the banding pattern is stated under "Endo".
Absence of nicking activity: 1 μg supercoiled pBR322 DNA is incubated with Protector RNase Inhibitor in 50 μl test buffer at +37°C for 1 hour. The amount of inhibitor that causes no relaxation of supercoiled DNA is stated under "Nick. Act.".
Absence of ribonuclease (1): 5 μg of MS2 RNA is incubated with Protector RNase Inhibitor for 1 hour at +37°C in a final volume of 50 μl. The amount of inhibitor that causes no degradation of MS2 RNA is stated under "RNase 1".
Absence of ribonuclease (2): 5 μg of MS2 RNA is incubated with Protector RNase Inhibitor for 1 hour at +37°C, then 10 minutes at +65°C in a final volume of 50 μl. The amount of inhibitor that causes no degradation of MS2 RNA is stated under "RNase 2".
