High temperature cDNA synthesis by AMV reverse transcriptase improves the specificity of PCR
The enzyme avian myeloblastosis virus reverse transcriptase (AMV-RT) is routinely used for cDNA synthesis, which is generally carried out at temperatures between 37 degrees C and 42 degrees C. We show that this enzyme can support cDNA synthesis, at temperatures as high as 70 degrees C. We have utili...

description | The enzyme avian myeloblastosis virus reverse transcriptase (AMV-RT) is routinely used for cDNA synthesis, which is generally carried out at temperatures between 37 degrees C and 42 degrees C. We show that this enzyme can support cDNA synthesis, at temperatures as high as 70 degrees C. We have utilized this property of the AMV-RT to improve the specificity of polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Furthermore, this apparently thermophilic property of the enzyme, which is an important constituent of a mesophilic organism, raises intriguing questions regarding evolution of the enzyme structure. |
