Bacterial Alkaline Phosphatase (E. coli)

Bacterial Alkaline Phosphatase (E.coli) nonspecifically catalyzes the removal of most phosphomonoester bonds from the 5' and 3' termini of DNA and RNA without degrading diphosphate or triphosphate linkages. The enzyme is purified from an E. coli strain that does not harbor RNase activity. Bacterial Alkaline Phosphatase (E. coli) is supplied in a buffer of 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 100 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2 and 50% glycerol.

Applications

  • Phosphate group removal to reduce self-ligation and vector background. 
  • Dephosphorylation of DNA 5' termini DNA prior to kinase labeling reactions

 

Source

E. coli strain C75

Storage

–20°C

Notes

Bacterial Alkaline Phosphatase (E.coli) is extremely stable and is not completely heat inactivated; therefore, reaction products need to be twice purified via phenol-chloroform extraction followed by ethanol precipitation.

Buffer

Supplied with 10X Reaction Buffer [500 mM Tris-HCl (pH 9.0), 10 mM MgCl2]
