M19 RNase A is used to remove RNA from DNA
plasmid preparations and protein samples. It is also used in RNA sequence
analysis and protection assays. M19 Rnase A is recombinantly expressed in and
purified from E. coli.
BACKGROUND:
M19
Ribonuclease A is an endoribonuclease that attacks at the 3’OHphosphate of a
pyrimidine nucleotide. The sequence of pG-pG-pC-pA-pG will be cleaved to give
pG-pG-pCp and A-pG. The highest activity is exhibited with single stranded RNA.
