| Description | m7G(5')ppp(5')G (Cap Analog) is used for the synthesis of 5' capped RNA molecules in in vitro transcription reactions. Substitution of cap analog for a large portion of the GTP in an in vitro transcription reaction results in the incorporation of the cap structure into a large fraction of the transcripts. Capped mRNAs are generally translated more efficiently in reticulocyte lysate and wheat germ in vitro translation systems. Uncapped mRNAs are rapidly degraded after microinjection into cells. Thus, it is important to cap in vitro transcripts for microinjection experiments. Cap analog is also used as a highly specific inhibitor of the initiation step of protein synthesis. | |
