Genta REV M Revertase, 100,000 units/ml

Genta RevM revertase (reverse transcriptase) is a genetically modified reverse transcriptase of the Moloney mouse leukemia virus (MMLV), designed for the synthesis of a complementary DNA chain (cDNA) on a single-stranded RNA matrix. Genta RevM was isolated from a strain of Escherichia coli expressing a modified MMLV reverse transcriptase gene.

In comparison with the reverse transcriptase of the "wild type" Genta REV M, the revertase has increased thermal stability: the optimal temperature for the enzyme is 50 ° C, the enzyme remains active at temperatures up to 65 ° C. Reverse transcriptase Genta RevM revertase provides higher cDNA yield, allows longer fragments to be synthesized, has improved efficiency when using GC-rich RNA matrices, and also has higher productivity.

The Genta RevM reverse transcriptase is suitable for RT-PCR in the "one-step" format.
