核糖核酸酶A是内切核糖核酸酶,可特异地攻击RNA上嘧啶残基的3'端,切割与相邻核苷酸形成的磷酸二酯键。反应终产物是嘧啶3'磷酸及末端带嘧啶3'磷酸的寡核苷酸。无辅因子及二价阳离子存在时,核糖核酸酶A的作用可被胎盘RNA酶抑制剂(B1ackburn et al.1977)或氧钒—核糖核苷复合物(Puskas et al.1982)所抑制。说明:生化研究;测定核酸的结构;核糖核酸(RNA)序列分析; 水解蛋白样品中的RNA;纯化DNA。
Product Description RNase A is an endoribonuclease that attacks at the 3’ phosphate of a pyrimidine nucleotide. The sequence of pG-pG-pC-pA-pG will be cleaved to give pG-pG-pCp and A-pG. The highest activity is exhibited with single stranded RNA. RNase A is a single chain polypeptide containing 4 disulfide bridges. In contrast to RNase B, it is not a glycoprotein.
RNase A can be inhibited by alkylation of His12 or His119, which are present in the active site of the enzyme. Activators of RNase A include potassium and sodium salts. Molecular mass:~13.7 kDa (amino acid sequence) Isoelectric point: pI = 9.6
Preparation
An RNase A solution can be made free of DNase by boiling. According to a literature method, prepare a 10 mg/mL stock solution in 10 mM sodium acetate buffer, pH 5.2. Heat to 100℃ for 15 minutes, allow to cool to room temperature, and then adjust to pH 7.4 using 0.1 volume of 1 M Tris-HCl, pH 7. 4. Aliquot and store at –20 ℃. If RNase A is boiled at a neutral pH, precipitation will occur. When boiled at the lower pH, some precipitation may occur because of protein impurities that are present.
Stability Store at Rnase A at –20 ℃. Stock solutions stored in frozen aliquots remain active for at least 6 months. RNase A is a very stable enzyme and solutions have been repo rted to withstand temperatures up to 100 ℃. At 100 ℃, an RNase A solution is most stable between pH 2.0 and 4.5.
Procedure A major application for RNase A is the removal of RNA from preparations of plasmid DNA. For this application, DNase free RNase A is used at a final concentration of 10μg/mL.
