Description
mRNA Cap 2'-O-Methyltransferase is capable of adding a methyl group to the 2'-OH of the first nucleotide adjacent to the 5´ end cap structure of RNA. It utilizes S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) as the methyl donor, leading to the 2’-O-methylation of the cap-O of capped RNA, forming Cap-1. Research has shown that the 2’-O-methylation of the Cap-1 structure can allow mRNA to evade certain immune responses in eukaryotic cells. mRNA Cap 2'-O-Methyltransferase can only methylate RNA with a 5' end cap structure of m7GpppN, and it cannot methylate RNA with 5' ends like pN, ppN, pppN, or GpppN. RNA with an m7GpppN cap structure can be modified by adding a cap analog in vitro transcription reactions or through in vitro capping systems.
2kU of mRNA Cap 2'-O-Methyltransferase can methylate 400 μg of capped RNA. Our mRNA Cap 2'-O-Methyltransferase is recombinantly expressed and purified through multiple steps.
