CleanCap® Renilla Luc mRNA (5moU)

CleanCap^®Renilla Luciferase mRNA (5-methoxyuridine)

Renilla luciferase (Renilla Luc) is a bioluminescent reporter protein derived from Renilla reniformis (sea pansy) (Lorenz, et al). In the presence of the cofactor, coelenterazine, Renilla luciferase produces light. Renilla Luc mRNA can be used as an internal control  in combination with FLuc mRNA to test different conditions, such as dosage or chemical modifications, and their effect on translation.

This mRNA is capped using CleanCap, TriLink's proprietary co-transciptional capping method, which results in the naturally occuring Cap 1 structure with high capping efficiency. It is polyadenylated, modified with 5-methoxyuridine and optimized for mammalian systems. It mimics a fully processed mature mRNA.
