We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

Relevance
Repairs 3'-OH/5'-PO4 nicks in duplex RNA or RNA:DNA hybrid in which the broken 3'-OH strand is RNA (Probable). The nick ligation reaction entails three nucleotidyl transfer steps. In the first step, the RNA ligase reacts with ATP in the absence of nucleic acid to form a covalent ligase-AMP intermediate and release pyrophosphate. In step 2, the ligase-AMP binds to the nicked duplex nucleic acid and transfers the adenylate to the 5'-PO4 terminus to form an adenylylated nicked intermediate. In step 3, the RNA ligase directs the attack of the nick 3'-OH on the 5'-phosphoanhydride linkage, resulting in a repaired 3' - 5' phosphodiester and release of AMP.

Form
Liquid or Lyophilized powder
Notes
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.
If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol.<br />If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.
Purity
Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Storage
The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. <br />Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
