Description
This is an engineered T7 RNA polymerase variant (low dsRNA) derived from the wild-type T7 RNA polymerase and produced in Escherichia coli. It significantly reduces the production of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) while efficiently incorporating cap analogs, and exhibiting highly efficient in vitro transcription (IVT) comparable to the wild-type T7 RNA polymerase. It catalyzes the 5'→3' synthesis of RNA on double-stranded DNA from its T7 promoter sequence (5'-TAATACGACTCACTATAG*-3') and uses NTPs as substrates.
Note: G* is the first base of the RNA transcript.
The original brand name of the product is CleaScrip™.
Feature
- Reduced dsRNA Content: dsRNA content is reduced by more than 10-fold.
- High Yield: Stable yield of over 9 mg/mL.
- Low Cap Analog Input**: Cap Analog input can be reduced to 2.5 mM.
- High Capping Efficiency**: Capping efficiency exceeds 99%.

Figure 2. Evaluation of the immunogenicity of the IVT products in murine RAW264.7 cells (Figures 2A and 2B). IFN-β mRNA and protein levels were reduced in RAW264.7 cells transfected with mRNA produced by mutants compared to wild-type, indicating that mRNA synthesized by the wild-type T7 RNAP elicited the strongest immune response, while mRNA from the mutants showed a significantly reduced response.
Figure 3. The dsRNA content in mRNA synthesized with Hieff™ T7 RNA polymerase is lower than that in mRNA synthesized with the wild-type enzyme after cellulose treatment.
