Base Preferences in Non-Templated Nucleotide Incorporation by MMLV-Derived Reverse Transcriptases

Pawel Zajac; Saiful Islam; Hannah Hochgerner dkk.

PLoS ONE, Vol. 8 No. 12 · 2013 · Inggris · PLOS Scopus

Reverse transcriptases derived from Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus (MMLV) have an intrinsic terminal transferase activity, which causes the addition of a few non-templated nucleotides at the 3´ end of cDNA, with a preference for cytosine. This mechanism can be exploited to make the reverse…
