  • Endogenous Reverse Transcriptase and Rnase H-Mediated Antiviral Mechanism in Embryonic Stem Cells
    www.nature.com/cr www.cell-research.com ARTICLE Endogenous reverse transcriptase and RNase H-mediated antiviral mechanism in embryonic stem cells Junyu Wu1, Chunyan Wu1, Fan Xing1, Liu Cao1, Weijie Zeng1, Liping Guo1, Ping Li1, Yongheng Zhong1, Hualian Jiang1, Manhui Luo1, Guang Shi2, Lang Bu1, Yanxi Ji1, Panpan Hou1, Hong Peng1, Junjiu Huang2, Chunmei Li1 and Deyin Guo 1 Nucleic acid-based systems play important roles in antiviral defense, including CRISPR/Cas that adopts RNA-guided DNA cleavage to prevent DNA phage infection and RNA interference (RNAi) that employs RNA-guided RNA cleavage to defend against RNA virus infection. Here, we report a novel type of nucleic acid-based antiviral system that exists in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), which suppresses RNA virus infection by DNA-mediated RNA cleavage. We found that the viral RNA of encephalomyocarditis virus can be reverse transcribed into complementary DNA (vcDNA) by the reverse transcriptase (RTase) encoded by endogenous retrovirus-like elements in mESCs. The vcDNA is negative-sense single-stranded and forms DNA/RNA hybrid with viral RNA. The viral RNA in the heteroduplex is subsequently destroyed by cellular RNase H1, leading to robust suppression of viral growth. Furthermore, either inhibition of the RTase activity or depletion of endogenous RNase H1 results in the promotion of virus proliferation. Altogether, our results provide intriguing insights into the antiviral mechanism of mESCs and the antiviral function of endogenized retroviruses and cellular RNase H. Such a natural nucleic acid-based antiviral mechanism in mESCs is referred to as ERASE (endogenous RTase/RNase H-mediated antiviral system), which is an addition to the previously known nucleic acid-based antiviral mechanisms including CRISPR/Cas in bacteria and RNAi in plants and invertebrates.

  • Directions for Use Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase, Recombinant (Rsap)
    Directions for Use Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase, Recombinant (rSAP) Code Description Size 1B1633-1KU Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase, Recombinant (rSAP) 1 vial, 1000 units (1 U/µL) 1B1633-5KU Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase, Recombinant (rSAP) 5 vials, 1000 units each (1 U/µL) General Information Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase, Recombinant (rSAP) is a heat-labile hydrolase enzyme produced in Pichia Pastoris that removes phosphate groups nonspecifically from 5’ ends of nucleic acid phosphomonoesters and proteins. This activity is most commonly utilized in molecular cloning to prevent self-ligation of linearized plasmid DNA and in 5’ end-labeling to facilitate the replacement of unlabeled phosphates with labeled phosphate groups. rSAP also prepares PCR products for DNA sequencing or SNP analysis, by dephosphorylating unincorporated dNTPs that would otherwise interfere with enzymatic reactions. VWR Life Science AMRESCO’s rSAP may be directly added to restriction enzyme digests and is conveniently inactivated 100% by heating at 65°C. This eliminates the need for vector purification, a step that is necessary when using alkaline phosphatases isolated from other sources, such as E. coli and calf intestine. rSAP works well in common buffers and does not require supplemental zinc or other additives. Removes 5’-phosphates from DNA, RNA, dNTPs and proteins Improves cloning efficiency by preventing vector recircularization 100% heat-inactivated at 65°C No vector purification necessary Removes unincorporated dNTPs in PCR products prior to DNA sequencing or SNP analysis Prepares templates for 5’-end labeling Dephosphorylates proteins Works in many different buffers without supplemental factors AMRESCO, LLC Corporate Headquarters, 28600 Fountain Parkway, Solon, OH 44139 Directions for Use Storage/Stability Stable at least 2 years when stored frozen (0 to -20°C).

  • Faqs for DNA End Modification: Dephosphorylation
    FAQs for DNA End Modification: Dephosphorylation 1. Does the DNA need to be purified after a restriction digest and prior to the dephosphorylation step? If the enzymes used in the restriction digest are heat inactivatable, then a purification step is not needed. If the enzymes used are not heat-inactivatable, then a clean-up step between the restriction digest and the dephosphorylation step is recommended. 2. Does the DNA need to be purified after the dephosphorylation step and prior to the ligation step? If you use rSAP or Antarctic Phosphatase, which are heat-inactivatable, then a clean- up step is not necessary. If the alkaline phosphatase used is CIP, which is not heat- inactivatable, then a clean-up step is necessary. 3. Which alkaline phosphatase, CIP, Antarctic or rSAP, works best? rSAP (NEB #M0371) is a superior choice because it combines the advantages of both CIP (NEB #M0290) and Antarctic Phosphatase (NEB #M0289). rSAP has a very high specific activity comparable to CIP, but CIP cannot be completely heat-inactivated. rSAP is heat-inactivated in 5 minutes, as is Antarctic Phosphatase, but rSAP is preferred over Antarctic Phosphatase because it does not require added zinc or any other co-factors. As a result, rSAP can be added directly to restriction enzyme digests. Additionally, after heat-inactivation of rSAP, it is not necessary to purify vector DNA prior to the ligation reaction. 4. Are the alkaline phosphatases active in NEBuffers? rSAP: rSAP is active in all restriction enzyme NEBuffers 1.1, 2.1, 3.1 and CutSmart™ Buffer, and can be added directly to digested DNA.

    Volume 7 Number 1 1979 Nucleic Acids Research Site specific enzymatic cleavage of RNA Helen Donis-Keller Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA Received 11 July 1979 ABSTRACT The hybridization of a DNA oligonucleotide (a specific tetramer or longer) will direct a cleavage by RNase H (EC 3.1.4.34) to a specific site in RNA. The resulting fragments can then be labeled at their 5' or 3' ends, purified, and sequenced directly. This procedure is demonstrated with two RNA molecules of known sequence: 5.8S rRNA from yeast (158 nucleotides) and satellite tobacco necrosis virus (STNV) RNA (1240 nucleotides). INTRODUCTION Rapid, direct sequencing techniques exist for terminally labeled RNA molecules up to 200 nucleotides in length (1-6). However, the sequence de- termination of larger molecules still presents problems, since there are not methods to fragment RNA analogous to restriction endonuclease cleavage of DNA (7). Although one can isolate partial RNase cleavage products (8-10), it is laborious to prepare a sufficient quantity of large RNA fragments which can be ordered by sequence overlaps. This communication describes an enzymatic method which avoids this difficulty. The method relies on the ability of ribonuclease H, purified from E. coli (11-13) or calf thymus (14-16), to attack only RNA-DNA hybrids breaking the RNA endonucleolytically to produce a 3' hydroxyl and a 5' phosphate at the point of cleavage (11,12,14-18). RNase H does not hydrolyze RNA-RNA hybrids, single-stranded RNA or DNA, or DNA-DNA hybrids (11,12,14,15,17-20).
