Application

Ribonuclease T1 (RNase T1) from Aspergillus oryzae is used to digest denatured RNA prior to sequencing and is used for protein folding studies .

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ribonuclease T1 (RNase T1) from Aspergillus oryzae is an endoribonuclease that hydrolyzes after G residues. Cleavage occurs between the 3′-phosphate group of a guanidine ribonucleotide and 5′-hydroxyl of the adjacent nucleotide. The initial product is a 2′:3′ cyclic phosphate nucleoside that is hydrolyzed to the corresponding 3′-nucleoside phosphate. It differs from Pancreatic RNase in that it attacks the guanine sites specifically to yield 3′-GMP and oligonucleotides with a 3′-GMP terminal group.

Unit Definition

One unit will produce acid soluble oligonucleotides equivalent to a ΔA260 of 1.0 in 15 min at pH 7.5 at 37°C, in a reaction volume of 1.0 mL. Substrate: Yeast RNA.

Slow protein folding processes during which kinetic folding intermediates occur for an extended time can lead to aggregation and dysfunction in living cells. Therefore, protein folding helpers have evolved, which prevent proteins from aggregation and/or speed up folding processes. In

Transfer ribonucleic acids (tRNAs) are challenging to identify and quantify from unseparated mixtures. Our lab previously developed the signature digestion approach for identifying tRNAs without specific separation. Here we describe the combination of relative quantification via enzyme-mediated isotope labeling with
