Application Data

Example 1.Detection of human β-actin mRNA by RT-PCR utilizing ReverTra Ace-α-™ and various PCR enzymes

cDNA was synthesized using 1 mg total RNA from the human cell line (HeLa cell) at 42ºC for 20 minutes, followed by inactivation with ReverTra Ace-α-™ in a volume of 20 mL at 99ºC for 5 minutes. Subsequently, using the attained cDNA, the target gene (β-actin: 838 bp) was amplified with various PCR enzymes.As shown in Fig. 1, the target genes were successfully amplified using the various PCR enzymes tested.
