About this item
Thermostable 5´ App DNA/RNA Ligase is a point mutant of catalytic lysine of RNA ligase from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum
This enzyme is ATP independent. It requires a 5´ pre-adenylated linker for ligation to the 3´-OH end of either RNA or single stranded DNA (ssDNA). The enzyme is also active in ligation of RNA with 2´-O-methylated 3´ end to 5´-adenylated linkers. The optimal temperature for ligation reaction is 60–65°C. The mutant ligase is unable to adenylate the 5´-phosphate of RNA or ssDNA, which reduces the formation of undesired ligation products (concatemers and circles).
