Hot Start TTx (RNA) Kit

  • Highly efficient one-enzyme system and 1-step qRT-PCR
  • Reverse transcription is possible at high temperatures
  • Detectability with high-speed cycles

Hot Start TTx (RNA) Kit is qRT-PCR reagent based on our original polymerase, TTx DNA Polymerase. TTx DNA polymerase exhibits reverse transcriptase activity in the presence of Mn2+ ions. This system allows for 1-step qRT-PCR, including reverse transcription and PCR steps.
TTx DNA Polymerase has higher amplification efficiency than Taq DNA Polymerase, which is a general-purpose enzyme, and has reverse transcription activity, enabling amplification from a crude sample containing PCR inhibitors with high efficiency from both DNA and RNA.
