Hot-Start PCR
Hot-start enzymes are completely inactive during room-temperature setup and become active only after heating, reducing random primer annealing and unspecific amplification that can occur with standard PCR enzymes. The fidelity of hot-start PCR is the same as for standard PCR, and targets of 3–5 kb are routinely amplified. Like standard Taq DNA polymerase, hot-start enzymes add an adenine to the 3' end of the product, allowing TA cloning.
Hot-start PCR master mixes, which contain all necessary PCR reagents, simplify PCR setup. Colored, high-density hot-start PCR buffers allow PCR products to be loaded directly onto gels after cycling. Colored storage buffers allow easy identification of mixes containing Hot Start Taq DNA Polymerase during reaction setup.
• Optimized — excellent enzyme performance

UPstart™ Taq Antibody, 1 mg/ml
FEATURES• Inhibition of >95% Taq activity at 45°C• 200 ng UPstart Taq Antibody are blocking 1 U Taq DNA polymerase• Exceptionally pure— made in cell culture
APPLICATIONS• Thermolabile inhibition of Taq DNA polymerases• Convenient hot-start PCR setup at room temperature• Fast polymerase activation with the first PCR denaturation step
DESCRIPTIONbiotechrabbit UPstart Taq Antibody is an ultra-puremonoclonal antibody against the Taq DNA polymerase. It is produced in cell culture to ensure highest quality.
The antibody can be used with highly efficient Taq DNA polymerases, provides an excellent method for “hot start” PCR and enhances PCR specificity and sensitivity. PCR hot start prevents the formation of primer–dimers and nonspecific amplification and allows convenient PCR setup at room temperature.
In the first denaturation step of the thermal cycling, the UPstart Antibody becomes nonfunctional and the active Taq DNA polymerase is released. This antibody-mediated hot-start method is significantly more convenient to use than other hot-start methods. Polymerase reactivation using this antibody is faster than with methods using chemically inhibited polymerases.

Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase, 1 U/µl
FEATURES• Quickly and easily removes 5' phosphates from DNA, RNA, dNTPs and proteins• Completely inactivated after 5 min at 65°C• Active in common restriction enzyme and PCR buffers• Exhibits excellent stability at 4°C and room temperature
APPLICATIONS• Removal of nucleotides from PCR prior to sequencing• Dephosphorylation of restriction-digested vectors to prevent religation prior to cloning• Rapid dephosphorylation of RNA, proteins or other biomolecules
DESCRIPTIONbiotechrabbit Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase is a multipur-pose alkaline phosphatase that dephosphorylates most biomolecules and is fully inactivated by heating for 5 min at 65°C. The enzyme is stable at room temperature and active in common buffers for restriction digestion and PCR.
Dephosphorylation of restriction-digested plasmid to prevent religation prior to cloning Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase provides an efficient method to reduce the religation of vectors during cloning of DNA fragments by dephosphorylating restriction-digested plasmids. The enzyme dephosphorylates all types of DNA termini — 3'-protruding, blunt and 5'-protruding — and is either added to the restriction mixture or after digestion. Subsequently, Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase is efficiently heat-inactivated. During the ligation of plasmid with DNA fragments, the background of unwanted “empty” clones is reduced to less than 5%.
PCR cleanup prior to sequencing The combination of Exonuclease 1 (not included) and Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase provides a simple and fast method for PCR cleanup. Both enzymes are simply added to the PCR mixture, incubated and heat-inactivated. Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase dephosphorylates nucleotides and primers, while Exonuclease 1 degrades primers, leaving a PCR product that can be directly used for sequencing or genotyping.

Heat Labile Uracil–DNA Glycosylase, 1 U/µl
FEATURES• The only Uracil–DNA glycosylase that is completely and irreversibly heat inactivated• Heat-labile without any addition of agents or inhibitors• Active in common PCR and RT-PCR buffers
APPLICATIONS• Eliminates carry-over contamination in PCR, RT-PCR, qPCR and RT-qPCR• Enables downstream post-PCR analysis such as cloning and sequencing• Analysis of ancient DNA
DESCRIPTIONbiotechrabbit Heat Labile Uracil–DNA Glycosylase selectively degrades uracil-containing PCR products. After performing PCR or RT-PCR using dUTP instead of dTTP, PCR products remain intact after treatment with Heat Labile Uracil–DNA Glycosylase, whereas contaminating DNA (i.e., not amplified) is degraded. Heat Labile Uracil–DNA Glycosylase is completely and irreversibly inactivated by moderate heat treatment at 50⁰C, allowing contamination control in RT-qPCR. The enzyme hydrolyses the N-glycosylic bond between the deoxyribose sugar and the base in uracil-containing DNA leaving an abasic (apyrimidinic) site in DNA but does not modify uracils in RNA.
Heat Labile Uracil–DNA Glycosylase is highly active at 20–40°C. No cofactors or divalent cations are required for activity, and the enzyme is active in most PCR and RT-PCR buffers. Although the enzyme is active a pH 6.5–9.0, the optimal pH 7.5 is in 50 mM NaCl.

APPLICATIONS• PCR carry-over contamination control• Site-directed mutagenesis• Glycosylase-mediated single-nucleotide polymorphism detecion
DESCRIPTIONbiotechrabbit Uracil–DNA Glycosylase (UDG) is an exceptionally pure enzyme that is especially useful for PCR carry-over contamination control. Amplification of contaminating templates remaining in the work environment from previous experiments is one of the most common PCR contamination problems. The use of Uracil–DNA Glycosylase (UDG) and dUTP (dNTP/dUTP Mix) helps prevent carry-over contamination.The enzyme shows no measurable activity with short oligonucleotides (<6 bases) and RNA substrates. Uracil–DNA Glycosylase is purified from a recombinant E. coli strain carrying the Uracil–DNA glycosylase gene from E. coli K-12.Uracil–DNA Glycosylase degrades DNA containing uracil. To prevent carry-over contamination, use dUTP or dTTP/dUTP rather than dTTP alone for PCR. After PCR with dUTP, the PCR products are substrates for UDG and any DNA containing uracil is degraded during the brief incu-bation with Uracil–DNA Glycosylase. This step eliminates contaminating DNA from previous experiments.

APPLICATIONS• Easy integration into cDNA synthesis protocols• Removal of genomic DNA from RNA preparations• Removal of contaminating DNA from PCR, qPCR and RT-qPCR• Purification of DNA polymerases
DESCRIPTIONbiotechrabbit Heat Labile dsDNase is an endonuclease that cleaves phosphodiester bonds in DNA to yield oligo-nucleotides with 5'-phosphate and 3'-hydroxyl termini. The enzyme has a particularly strong preference for double-stranded DNA (dsDNA), thus double-stranded DNA is degraded, leaving single-stranded DNA and RNA intact. The enzyme is completely and irreversibly inactivated with 5 min at 55°C in the presence of 1 mM DTT and pH 8.0. Heat Labile dsDNase is highly active at 20–40°C .

T7 RNA Polymerase, 50 U/µl
FEATURES• High-yield in vitro transcription• Strictly promoter-specific activity• No promoter cross-talk• Free from endonuclease, exonuclease, protease, RNase
APPLICATIONS
• Preparation of homogeneously labeled RNA probes for hybridization (e.g., radioactive, biotin, DIG-11-UTP)• Generation of mRNA for in vitro translation, gene expression or splicing studies• Production of template for cDNA synthesis• In vitro synthesis of capped RNA transcripts• Synthesis of antisense RNA and dsRNA for RNA interference or gene silencing
DESCRIPTIONT7 RNA Polymerase is an extremely promoter-specific, DNA-dependent polymerase from the T7 bacteriophage. The enzyme requires Mg2+ ions and the presence of the T7 promoter in the template DNA to synthesize RNA in the 5́ → 3´ direction.The combination of the high-specificity binding, which reduces cross-talk with other promoters, and the rigorous purity testing, which confirms absence of other enzymatic activities, ensures that the T7 RNA Polymerase transcri-bes large amounts of RNA from sequences downstream of the T7 promoter. By using T7 promoters in opposite orientation, double-stranded RNA can be generated. The synthesized RNA is suitable for use in a wide range of applications, including hybridization (e.g., blot, in situ, and microarray), RNA protection, capped RNA and antisense RNA.

Cell-Free Protein Synthesis
Cell-free protein synthesis overcomes the limitations of traditional cell-based methods. Advantages are ease of use, speed, throughput and the flexible character of the system. Expression conditions can be controlled and easily adapted by adding supplements. It is possible to express toxic proteins and to incorporate labeled amino acids into the protein of interest.Laborious up- and downstream procedures of traditional in vivo methods are avoided as this technique does not requi-re gene transfection or cell culture. By using linear PCR ba-sed templates to express the gene of interest, time-consu-ming cloning procedures are completely avoided.biotechrabbit expression systems are based on extracts from E. coli, wheat germ and insect cells. All components are optimized for highest productivity.
• From gene to protein within one day
• No transfection, no cell culture
• Expression of toxic proteins
• Easy site-specific labeling of proteins
• Excellent reproducibility
• High-throughput screening approaches
• Dedicated His-tag protein purification kits
Cell-Free Expression Workflow
Continuous Exchange Cell-Free (CECF) Technology
Batch CECFCell-free protein expression in batch format is highly suitable for screening applications because of the fast and easy setup. However, due to inhibition from byproducts and depletion of subtrates, yields using this process are limited.Highest yields are achieved with continuous exchange during cell-free expression (CECF), which allows pro-tein expression to continue for 24 hours. CECF relies on diffusion through a semipermeable membrane between the reaction and the feeding chamber. The reaction chamber contains the machinery for protein expression, while the feeding chamber continuously supplies amino acids, NTPs and energy-regenerating compounds. During the reaction, inhibitory byproducts diffuse out off the reaction chamber.In combination with the optimized high-yield (HY) lysates, synthesis rates using CECF are much higher compared to conventional cell-free expression systems.

RTS 100/500 E. coli Disulfide Kits
FEATURES• Optimized reaction conditions for the expression of functional disulfide-bonded proteins• No need for refolding aggregated proteins• CECF technology for yields ables of up to 2.5 mg
APPLICATIONS• Expression of active proteins containing multiple disulfide bonds
DESCRIPTIONThe biotechrabbit RTS 100/500 E. coli Disulfide Kits provide an optimized combination of lysate, reagents, cha-perones, and buffer systems to produce maximum yields of active proteins containing multiple disulfide-bonds in a CECF system.The kit employs several innovative technologies:• Optimized high-yield (HY) E. coli lysate• Redox buffer to maintain the system under oxidizing conditions, which enhances disulfide-bond formation• Disulfide isomerase for rearrangement of disulfide bonds, which enhances the yields of correctly folded proteins
The CECF technology prolongs the reaction time up to 24 hours and, therefore, enhances protein yield. Transcripti-on, translation and disulfide-bond formation take place in the reaction compartment of the device. Substrates and energy components needed for a sustained reaction are continuously supplied via a semipermeable membrane. At the same time, potentially inhibitory interactions with by- products are diluted by diffusion through the same mem-brane into the 1 ml feeding chamber. Depending on the particular protein, expression of up to several milligrams of protein per reaction can be obtained (e.g., >2 mg/ml of active urokinase).

While the RTS 100 Wheat Germ CECF Kit is designed for high-throughput protein expression, the RTS 500 version ensures higher yields.
The system can be used with linear templates as well as mRNA, vectors and plasmid DNA. Depending on the protein, expression yields of more than 1 mg protein per reaction can be obtained within 24 hours in a 1 ml reaction.

Protein Synthesis for Site-Directed Labeling
RTS 100 Site-Specific Label Kit
Proteins with unique functional groups such as affinity labels, fluorescence moieties or drug conjugates offer high potential in many biotechnological or biomedical applications.An attractive alternative to known conventional posttrans-lational methods of protein modification is the site-directed incorporation of unnatural amino acids. In a specialized cell-free system, amino acids labeled with dyes or chemoselective reactive amino acids are incorporated stoichiometrically at defined positions of the expressed protein. Such homogenous site specific-modified proteins are the basis for a broad range of downstream applications.
• Protein-drug conjugates
• Stoichiometric incorporation of dyes, PEG
or other functionality
• Labeling with a broad range of commercially
available chemoselective reagents
FEATURES• Efficient incorporation of chemoselective reactive amino acids• High-yield synthesis of proteins with unnatural amino acids • No protein purification necessary prior to labeling• Minimal change of native protein structure• Stoichiometric incorporation (1 label per 1 protein)• Amber suppression-based expansion of the genetic code

Linear Templates and Vectors for Cell-Free Protein Synthesis
biotechrabbit cell-free expression kits can be used with linear templates and expression vectors to produce the proteins of interest. The ability to use linear templates is one of the major advantages of cell-free compared to cell-ba-sed expression systems. Linear expression templates can be rapidly generated by PCR, allowing multiple constructs to be screened quickly and easily.Expression vectors enable protein production to be up-scaled. Either the genes of interest are directly inserted into an expression vector or linear templates are generated first by PCR and subsequently cloned. Protein yields achie-ved are sufficient for extended functional and structural analysis, or production of labeled proteins for NMR spec-troscopic or X-ray crystallographic studies.
• Fast PCR-based generation of linear templates
• Rapid expression screening and optimization
• Optimized expression vectors for scaling
production up to 6 mg per ml
• Flexible positioning of purification tags

High Affinity His-tag Protein Binding
Modern proteomics relies on reliable and sensitive detec-tion and labeling of tagged proteins, such as those bearing the 6xHis-tag. However, the low affinity of currently availa-ble chelators used for protein binding limits the sensitivity of many applications for selective, site-specific conjugation of proteins. To address this issue, biotechrabbit offers a superior His-tag protein ligand for the reversible binding of proteins and cell surfaces: Tris-NTA.
With a binding affinity that is approximately four orders of magnitude higher than monovalent metal ion chelators (such as nitrilotriacetic acid and iminodiacetic acid), Tris-NTA increases the sensitivity in western hybridization, biosensor analysis, functional protein analysis, protein purification and many other applications.
• 10,000 times higher binding affinity than
conventional chelators
• Reversible binding of biomolecules
• Great flexibility in functional assays
Tris-NTA Amine / Biotin
DESCRIPTIONHis-tags are one of the most commonly used tags for protein expression analysis. Conventional metal ion chelators, such as nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) and iminodiacetic acid (IDA), bind His-tags with low affinities in the range of 10 µM. The biotechrabbit Tris-NTA complexes three NTA groups that together bind a 6×His-tag with an affinity that is four orders of magnitude higher (1 nM) than is possible with conventional chelators (10 µM). The binding of His-tags is stoichiometric and single-molecule detec-tion is possible. Binding is reversible: bound His-tags can be released with imidazole or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA).biotechrabbit Tris-NTA is available with a free amine group or conjugated to biotin. It can be used in a large range of applications, including protein detection and labeling, cou-pling proteins, lipids or cells to surfaces, protein purificati-on and reversible protein modification.Notice to purchaser: Limited License ( see page 79 )
