For robust two-step RT-PCR of RNA up to 14 kb Application The Transcriptor First Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit is designed to reverse transcribe RNA (mRNA, total RNA, viral RNA, and in vitro-transcribed RNA) from a variety of sources for the following applications: •Studying gene expression levels, via two-step RT-PCR, using qualitative RT-PCR or quantitative RT-PCR on the LightCycler® Carousel-Based System, the LightCycler® 480 System, or other real-time instruments. •Generating cDNA libraries with large and full-length inserts. •Cloning genes of interest. The kit contains all components required for cDNA reactions for use with conventional thermal cyclers and real-time PCR instruments. In addition, the 50-reaction pack size includes 10 control reactions.
