Description

Description:
DNA Homopolymeric Tailing Kit provides qualified reagents for the addition of homopolymer tails to the 3′ ends of DNA with terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase (TdT). Under optimized assay condition, approximately average of 30~70nt oligo(dA) and oligo(dT) or 15~45nt oligo(dC) and oligo(dG) could be added to the target substrate.
TdT is a template-independent DNA polymerase that catalyzes the repetitive addition of deoxynucleotides to the 3′ hydroxyl terminus of DNA molecules. The enzyme was generated from an E. coli strain that carries the cloned TdT gene from calf thymus with selected mutations. Protruding, recessed or blunt-ended double or single-stranded DNA molecules serve as a substrate for TdT. The addition of dNTPs to 3′-overhanging ends is more efficient than with 3′-recessed or blunt ends. TdT incorporates dATP and dTTP with higher efficiency than dCTP and dGTP. The optimized master mixture stimulates the tailing of the 3′-ends of DNA fragments, even applicable for incorporating ribonucleotides and modified nucleotides (e.g., fluorescein-, biotin-, aminoallyl-labeled nucleotides and dideoxynucleotides).

Figures:

Figure 1: Fragment analysis through 3730 xl DNA Analyzer shows an oligo(dA) tail was added to 5’ fluorescently labeled single strand DNA oligo using DNA Homopolymeric Tailing Master Mix (dA) Kit. Arrow: Tailing reaction final product. A: Fifteen minutes at 37°C reaction product with a 50 nt average length of homopolymer dA tail. B: Thirty minutes at 37°C reaction product with a 65 nt average length of homopolymer dA tail.


Figure 2: Fragment analysis through 3730 xl DNA Analyzer shows an oligo(dC) tail was added to 5’ fluorescently labeled single strand DNA oligo using DNA Homopolymeric Tailing Master Mix (dC) Kit. Arrow: Tailing reaction final product. A: Twenty minutes at 37°C reaction product with a 38 nt average length of homopolymer dC tail. B: Forty minutes at 37°C reaction product with a 45 nt average length of homopolymer dC tail.
