MEGAscript: Consistent, High Yields of RNA Transcripts
Using the MEGAscript
Kit, you can produce over 120 g of RNA from 1 g of DNA template.
This is 10-50 times the amount of RNA produced by conventional transcription
(Figure 2). Reactions are versatile and can be manipulated to include
specialized reagents such as modified nucleotides or additional polymerase.
In addition, Ambion has optimized the transcription of short (20-500 nt)
DNA templates with the MEGAshortscript
Kit. This patented technology was designed to maximize the yield of
short RNA transcripts from plasmid, oligonucleotides, and PCR product
templates.

of RNA Transcripts of Different Sizes. In vitro transcription was performed
using 1, 4, or 9 kb templates with Ambion's MEGAscript Kit according
to protocol. 20 l reactions were diluted to 100 l and 1 l w
