I. Description
The All-in-One™ First-Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit includes a reverse transcriptase and a specialized set of
reagents designed to yield first-strand cDNA that is optimal for gene cloning, cDNA library creation and
quantitative PCR amplification. A robust experimental design delivers a universal kit that is suitable for firststrand cDNA synthesis from almost any source of RNA.
The kit uses Moloney Murine Leukemia Virus Reverse Transcriptase, RNase H Minus (M-MLV RTase (H–))
which is an RNA-dependent DNA polymerase used in cDNA synthesis with long RNA templates (>13kb).
The lack of RNase H activity is important in this application in that RNase H activity will start to degrade
template during long incubation times required for producing long cDNAs. RNase H minus RT enables
preparation of long cDNAs and libraries containing a high percentage of full-length cDNA.
