Ribonuclease H (RNase H) is an endoribonuclease that specifically degrades the RNA strand of an RNA-DNA hybrid to produce 5´ phosphate-terminated oligoribonucleotides and single-stranded DNA.

Applications

Removal of mRNA during second-strand cDNA synthesis. Removal of poly(A) sequences from mRNA in the presence of oligo(dT). Oligodeoxyribonucleotide-directed cleavage of RNA.

Source

Purified from E. coli expressing the E. coli RNase H gene on a plasmid.

Performance and quality testing

Ribonuclease, nonspecific endodeoxyribonuclease, 3´ and 5´ exodeoxyribonuclease.

Unit definition

One unit hydrolyzes 1 nmol of RNA in 3H-labeled poly(A)poly(dT) to acid-soluble material in 20 min at 37°C.

Unit reaction conditions

20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 0.1 M KCl, 10 mM MgCl2 , 0.1 mM DTT, 5% (w/v) sucrose, 0.5 nmol 3H-labeled poly(A)poly(dT), and enzyme in 50 μL for 20 min at 37°C.
For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

The application of resonance light scattering (RLS) particles for high-sensitivity detection of DNA hybridization on cDNA microarrays is demonstrated. Arrays composed of approximately 2000 human genes ( ... More
The murine beta-globin locus control region regulates the rate of transcription but not the hyperacetylation of histones at the active genes.
Authors: Schübeler D; Groudine M; Bender M A;
Journal:Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
PubMed ID:11553791
Locus control regions (LCRs) are defined by their ability to confer high-level tissue-specific expression to linked genes in transgenic assays. Previously, we reported that, at its native site, the murine beta-globin LCR is required for high-level beta-globin gene expression, but is not required to initiate an open chromatin conformation of ... More
