Customer Q&As
What is poly(A) tail?

A: Poly(A) tailing, also known as polyadenylation, is a post-transcriptional modification of eukaryotic mRNA (messenger RNA) molecules, in which a sequence of adenosine (A) nucleotides is added to the 3' end of the mRNA.

What does adding a poly(A) tail do?

A: Adding a poly(A) tail involves the addition of a long sequence of adenosine nucleotides to the 3' end of an mRNA molecule. The poly(A) tail is added in a process called polyadenylation, and it plays several important roles in mRNA stability, translation, and transport.

How does the poly(A) tail affect mRNA stability?

A: The poly(A) tail protects the mRNA molecule from enzymatic degradation. Without a poly(A) tail, mRNA molecules would be rapidly degraded by exonucleases, which are enzymes that cleave off nucleotides from the end of a molecule. The poly(A) tail also helps to recruit specific RNA-binding proteins that stabilize the mRNA molecule.

Is a longer poly(A) tail more stable?

A: At the end of each mRNA molecule is a poly(A) tail comprised of tens to hundreds of nucleotides called adenosines. The length of these tails can vary greatly between different mRNAs, and longer poly(A) tails are believed to improve translation and enhance mRNA stability.

Does poly(A) tail increase translation?

A: The poly(A) tail can also stimulate translation and cooperates with the cap structure in a synergistic fashion.

Great kit.

Great kit. In my micro injection and transfection experiments, the kit helped me improve the translation efficiency of cap RNA synthesized in vitro.
