摘要:
A method of producing a Rous Sarcoma Virus reverse transcriptase (RSV RT) by expressing one orniore nucleic acid sequences encoding one or more subunits of RSV RT in a eukaryotic host cell and culturing the host cell under conditions sufficient to produce the recombinant RSV RT. The resulting RSV RT has a specific activity of between about 30,000 and 150,000 units per milligram and is suitable for methods including RT-polyinerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
摘要:
The present invention is generally related to compositions and methods for the reverse transcription of nucleic acid molecules, especially messenger RNA molecules. Specifically, the invention relates to compositions comprising mixtures of polypeptides having reverse transcriptase (RT) activity, and to methods of producing, amplifying or sequencing nucleic acid molecules (particularly cDNA molecules) using these compositions or polypeptides, particularly at temperatures above about 55null C. The invention also relates to nucleic acid molecules produced by these methods, to vectors and host cells comprising these nucleic acid molecules, and to the use of such nucleic acid molecules to produce desired polypeptides. The invention also relates to methods for producing Rous Sarcoma Virus (RSV) and Avian Myeloblastosis Virus (AMV) RTs or other Avian Sarcoma-Leukosis Virus (ASLV) RTs (null and/or null subunits thereof), to isolated nucleic acid molecules encoding such RSV RT, AMV RT or other ASLV RT subunits, to vectors and host cells comprising these isolated nucleic acid molecules and to RSV RT, AMV RT and other ASLV RT subunits produced by these methods. The invention further relates to nucleic acid molecules encoding recombinant heterodimeric RT holoenzymes, particularly heterodimeric RSV RTs, AMV RTs or other ASLV RTs (which may be nullnull RTs, nullnull RTs, or null RTs), vectors (particularly baculovirus vectors) and host cells (particularly insect and yeast cells) comprising these nucleic acid molecules, methods for producing these heterodimeric RTs and heterodimeric RTs produced by these methods. The invention also relates to kits comprising the compositions, polypeptides, or RSV RTs, AMV RTs or other ASLV RTs of the invention.
