Activity Assay
200 units of enzyme are used to produce cDNA from 1µg of a 1.2kb control RNA. The minimum specification is 120ng of first strand cDNA made from 1µg of RNA. The cDNA product must be >90% full length.
Contaminant Activity
To test for endonuclease activity, 1µg of Type I supercoiled plasmid DNA is incubated with 500 units of M-MLV Reverse Transcriptase in 1X Reaction Buffer for one hour at 37° C. Following incubation, the supercoiled DNA is visualized on an ethidium bromide-stained agarose gel to verify the absence of visible nicking or cutting (analysis on 0.4µg of DNA).
Physical Purity
The purity is >90% as judged by SDS-polyacrylamide gels with Coomassie® blue staining.
