T4 RNA Ligase 1 catalyzes the ATP-dependent formation of a 3'→5' phosphodiester bond on a broad range of substrates including single-stranded RNA and DNA, oligoribonucleotides, oligodeoxynucleotides, as well as numerous nucleotide derivatives. The phosphodiester bond is created between a 5′-phosphoryl-terminated nucleic acid donor and a 3′-hydroxyl-terminated nucleic acid acceptor in a template-independent manner.
Description
RNA 3'-termini labeling with cytidine 3',5'-bis [alpha-32P] phosphate ; Intermolecular and intramolecular joining of RNA and DNA ; Incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins ; Synthesis of oligoribonucleotides and oligodeoxyribonucleotides ; 5′- and 3′-end mapping of mRNA
