Invitrogen™ KinaseMax™ 5' End-Labeling Kit

Invitrogen™ KinaseMax™ 5' End-Labeling Kit

The Ambion® KinaseMax™ 5' End-Labeling Kit allows the efficient end-labeling of DNA or RNA to high-specific activity with T4 polynucleotide kinase and [gamma-32P] ATP, or quantitative phosphorylation of 5' ends using unlabeled ATP. Includes sufficient reagents for 30 reactions.

he kit includes a kinase reaction buffer that exceeds the performance of the standard forward reaction buffers recommended in "Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual" (Sambrook et al., 1989) and "Current Protocols in Molecular Biology" (John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Ausubel, FM et al. editors, 1994). Crude 7000 Ci/mmol [gamma-32P]ATP is compatible with this kit. End-labeled probes are more stable than internally labeled probes and can routinely be used in assays for two to four weeks.

Features

• Label oligonucleotide probes for nuclease protection assays and blot hybridizations
• Label primers for northerns and quantitative PCR
• Obtain up to 3-fold greater yields than with standard kinase buffers
• Reagents included for forward and dephosphorylation reactions
