Description
igScript™ Glycerol-free Reverse Transcriptase is a recombinant Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (MMLV) reverse transcriptase with reduced RNase H activity. It is highly efficient at producing full-length cDNA from long RNA templates. igScript RT is an RNA-directed DNA polymerase which lacks 3´ → 5´ exonuclease activity and is capable of producing cDNA from as little as 50 pg of total RNA for real-time RT-PCR analysis and other applications.
Protein Purity:
The physical purity of this enzyme is ≥98% as assessed by SDS-PAGE with Coomassie® blue staining (see figure below).

First Strand cDNA Synthesis Protocol
- In a sterile micro-centrifuge tube, add the following components on ice:
- Heat the reaction for 5 minutes at 65 °C. Spin down briefly. Place the tube immediately on ice.
- Add the following components:
- If using random hexamers, incubate the reaction at 25 °C for 10 minutes, then proceed to step 5.
- Incubate the reaction at 42 °C for 30-60 minutes.
- Inactivate the enzyme by incubating at 65 °C for 20 minutes.
- Store products at -20 °C or proceed to next step.
* RNase inhibitor can be purchased from any commercial source
