Invitrogen™ Cap Analog (m⁷G(5')ppp(5')G), 10 A₂₅₄ units

Includes

Single tube (10 A₂₅₄ U).

For 5' capped RNA molecules synthesis as part of in vitro transcription reactions

Invitrogen Cap Analog [m⁷G(5')ppp(5')G] is used for the synthesis of 5' capped RNA molecules as part of in vitro transcription reactions. These molecules are translated more efficiently using in vitro translation systems than uncapped mRNAs. 10 A₂₅₄ U supplied.

• Used as a highly specific inhibitor of the initiation step of protein synthesis.
• Tested for contaminating nonspecific endonuclease, exonuclease, and RNase activity
• Assayed for efficient synthesis of capped in vitro transcripts by using cap analog in functional MEGAscript™ In Vitro transcription and Retic Lysate translation reactions
