Overview:
The RAS gene superfamily encodes a group of closely related 21,000 dalton (p21) proteins with special affinity for guanine nucleotides (GTP). RAS and several other cellular proteins with similar biochemical properties are collectively known as G-proteins and they play key roles in a wide variety of cellular activities, including cell growth, differentiation, secretion, and protein trafficking (1). There are three forms of RAS gene in cells termed H-RAS, N-RAS, and K-RAS. RAS proteins play a direct causal role in human cancer and in other diseases. Mutant H-RAS, N-RAS, and K-RAS occur in varying frequencies in different tumor types (2). Other members of the RAS superfamily may also contribute to cancer.
Gene Aliases:
ALPS4; CMNS; N-ras; NCMS; NRAS1; NS6
Genbank Number:
NM_002524

我在做5RACE,选用TaKaRa公司的RNA反转录酶(RNaseH-),不知道这个酶好不好,有什么需要注意的。
没有序列识别的功能,他就是简单的催化相邻DNA链的5-P末端和3'-OH末端以磷酸二酯键结合的反应,需ATP作辅酶。 不仅可以催化粘性末端之间或平滑末端之间的DNA的连接,也催化DNA与RNA之间以及少数RNA之间的连接。
反转录酶(Reversetranscripatase)是以RNA为模板指导三磷酸脱氧核苷酸合成互补DNA(cDNA)的酶。哺乳类C型病毒的反转录酶和鼠类B型病毒的反转录酶都是一条多肽链。鸟类RNA病毒的反转录酶则由两上亚基结构。真核生物中也都分离出具有不同结构的反转录酶。
