Enzymatic synthesis of milligram quantities of ribozymes in small volumes
1Epicentre Technologies, Madison, WI.
Abstract:
Milligram quantities of ribozymes (Rzs) can be synthesized in vitro in reaction volumes of 1 mL or less using AmpliScribe T7 RNA polymerase kits to transcribe either linear plasmids or oligodeoxynucleotide templates. Model hammerhead Rzs were synthesized that specifically cleave RNA-encoding chloramphenicol acetyl transferase sequences. Methods are presented for the transcription of Rzs of virtually any length and sequence composition at a fraction of the cost of chemical synthesis.
