The commercially available mRNA has been enhanced with a 5’ cap and polyA tails and is prepared for use in any research project. Spend less time and effort creating and generating mRNA.
and Furuichi et al., revealed that certain viral and eukaryotic mRNAs have a cap — a methylated guanosine residue linked to the 5′ end of mRNA through an inverted 5′ to 5′ triphosphate bridge.
Alternatively, researchers can also modify the chemical structure of the mRNA cap found at the molecule’s 5’ end. The naturally-occurring cap structure typical in mammalian cells has a ...
