Product Name: m7G(5')ppp(5')(2'-OMeA)pG·NH4
Product Description:
m7G(5')ppp(5')(2'-OMeA)pG·NH4 is a modified RNA cap analog commonly used in molecular biology research and RNA-related studies. It is a complex structure consisting of a methylated guanosine cap (m7G) linked to a dinucleotide bridge [(5')ppp(5')] and a 2'-O-methyladenosine (2'-OMeA) residue. The ammonium ion (NH4) is included to enhance stability and solubility. This cap analog mimics the structure found at the 5' end of eukaryotic mRNA, providing a valuable tool for studying mRNA capping and translation processes.
Key Features:
Modified RNA Cap: m7G(5')ppp(5')(2'-OMeA)pG·NH4 contains a methylated guanosine cap (m7G) that closely resembles the natural cap structure found on eukaryotic mRNA. This modification enables the study of cap-dependent translation initiation and mRNA stability.
Dinucleotide Bridge: The dinucleotide bridge [(5')ppp(5')] connects the cap structure to the 2'-O-methyladenosine (2'-OMeA) residue, providing stability and maintaining the integrity of the cap analog during experimental procedures.
2'-O-Methylation: The 2'-O-methyladenosine (2'-OMeA) modification enhances the stability and resistance of the cap analog to nuclease degradation, ensuring reliable results in downstream applications.
Ammonium Ion (NH4): The inclusion of the ammonium ion enhances the solubility and stability of the cap analog, facilitating its use in various experimental setups.
