It cleaves between the two N-acetylglucosamine residues in the diacetylchitobiose core of the oligosaccharide, Product DescriptionEndo F2 cleaves N-linked (asparagine-linked) biantennary oligosaccharides from glycoproteins. It also will cleave high mannose glycans but at a 40x reduced rate. It cleaves between the two N-acetylglucosamine residues in the diacetylchitobiose core of the oligosaccharide, generating a truncated sugar molecule with one N-acetylglucosamine residue remaining on the asparagine. In contrast, PNGase F removes the oligosaccharide intact.Endoglycosidase F2 is less sensitive to protein conformation than PNGase F and is therefore more suitable for deglycosylation of native proteins. However, for optimal results, denaturation of the glycoprotein is recommended.Contents60 µl aliquot of enzyme (0.3 U) in 10 mM sodium acetate 25mM NaCl, pH 4.5Included with 20 µL and 60 µL pack sizes:5x Reaction Buffer – 250 mM sodium acetate, pH 4.5Molecular weight 32,000 daltonsSpecific Activity Defined as the amount of enzyme required to catalyze the release of N-linked oligosaccharides from 1 micromole of denatured porcine fibrinogen in 1 minute at 37°C, pH 5.5. Cleavage is monitored by SDS-PAGE (cleaved fibrinogen migrates faster).Formulation The enzyme is provided as a sterile-filtered solution in 10 mM sodium acetate, 25mM NaCl, pH 4.5Specificity Endo F2 cleaves Asparagine-linked biantennary and high mannose glycans (at a 40X reduced rate). It cleaves between the two N-acetylglucosamine residues in the diacetylchitobiose core of the oligosaccharide, generating a truncated sugar molecule with one N-acetylglucosamine residue remaining on the asparagine. In contrast, PNGase F removes the oligosaccharide intact. Endoglycosidase F2 is less sensitive to protein conformation than PNGase F and is therefore more suitable for deglycosylation of native proteins. However for optimal results, denaturation of the glycoprotein is recommended.Quality & Purity Endo F2 is tested for contaminating protease as follows: 10 µg of denatured BSA is incubated at 37°C for 24 hours with 2 µl of enzyme. SDS-PAGE analysis of the treated BSA shows no evidence of degradation. The production host strain has been extensively tested and does not produce any detectable glycosidases.Stability Several days exposure to ambient temperatures will not reduce activity. Stable at least 12 months when stored properly.Directions for use 1. Add up to 200 µg of glycoprotein to an Eppendorf tube. Adjust to 38 µl final volume with de-ionized water. 2. Add 10 µl 5x Reaction Buffer 4.5 3. Add 2.0 µl of Endo F2 to the reaction. Incubate 1 hour at 37°C.

The enzyme is responsible for transcription of the viral RNA to produce a dsDNA that can be inserted into the host genome.Reverse transcriptases are multifunctional enzymes. These enzymes exhibit an RNA and DNA directed polymerase activity. In addition reverse transcriptases catalyze the degradation of RNA in an RNA-DNA hybrid. The exonucleolytic activity proceeds in a 5' ---> 3' direction. The RNA or DNA directed activity requires a template (RNA or DNA) and a primer. The following is a schematic illustration of the reaction:Unit definition: One unit incorporates 1 nanomole of tritiated dTMP into acid insoluble productsusing poly(A)•oligo(dT) 12-18 as the template-primer in 20 minutes at 37° C.ApplicationsHIV reverse transcriptase is used for research on the AIDS primer. However it can be substituted for AMV reverse transcriptase, which is mainly used to transcribe mRNA into double stranded cDNA, that can be inserted into prokaryotic vectors. The enzyme can also be used with either single stranded DNA or RNA templates to make probes for use in hybridization experiments. It can be used for labeling the termini of DNA fragments with protruding 5' termini. The enzyme can also be used to sequence DNAs by the dideoxy chain termination method of Sanger when the Klenow fragment of E. coli DNA polymerase I, or the T7 DNA polymerase yield unsatisfactory results.Reagents0.05 M Tris, pH 8.3, containing 0.008 M MgCl21 mg/ml polyadenylic acid in water (poly A)DNA primer:Oligo d(T)12-181 µ mole dTTP/mL stock solution[methyl-3H]-Thymidine 5'-triphosphate (3H-dTTP)dTTP-3H-dTTP working mix: Add 1-2 µL 3H-dTTP per mL of 100 nmol/mL dTTP in order to obtain 1 to 1.5 x 105 cpm/mL1% bovine serum albumin10% perchloric acid1% perchloric acidBuffer substrate reaction mixture: Prepare fresh, immediately before use:For each 1mL of reaction mixture required mix:0.7 mL Tris/HCl, pH 8.3, 0.008M MgCl20.3 mL 1 mg/mL poly(A) RNA template0.005 mL 0.02 mg/mL oligo d(T)12-18 DNA primer0.02mL 1% BSAEnzymedilute as needed wtih 0.05M Tris/HCl, pH 8.3, 0.008M MgCl2 containing 0.1 mg/mL (1%) BSAProcedurePipette into each tube as follows:Buffer substrate mix:0.1 mLdTTP-3H3-dTTP:0.1 mLEnzyme:5-10 µLIncubate 20 minutes at 37° C.
