Description
Invitrogen; The MEGAshortscript™ T7 Kit is designed for high yields of in vitro- transcribed RNA products, in the 20-500 nucleotide range. Using conventional methods, transcription of small templates often results in low mass yields of RNA. Short transcripts require many more transcription initiation events to synthesize a given mass of product. Since the initiation step is the rate-limiting step in transcription reactions, the yield of product from short templates is often low. The MEGAshortscript™ T7 Kit has been designed to overcome the drawbacks involved in conventional in vitro transcription to maximize the yield of short RNA transcripts.
Advantages of the MEGAshortscript™ Kit:
• Efficiently transcribes small templates (<300 bases) with consistently high yields
• Designed for use with plasmid, synthetic oligonucleotide, or PCR product templates
Note:The MEGAshortscript™ T7 Kit is optimized for use with the T7 polymerase included in the kit. Using a different polymerase may result in low yields
