Thermostable 5´ App DNA/RNA Ligase is a point mutant of catalytic lysine of RNA ligase from Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum (1). This enzyme is ATP independent. It requires a 5´ pre-adenylated linker for ligation to the 3´-OH end of either RNA or single stranded DNA (ssDNA). The enzyme is also active in ligation of RNA with 2´-O-methylated 3´ end to 5´-adenylated linkers (1). The optimal temperature for ligation reaction is 60–65°C (2). The mutant ligase is unable to adenylate the 5´-phosphate of RNA or ssDNA, which reduces the formation of undesired ligation products (concatemers and circles).

The ability of the ligase to function at 65°C might reduce the constraints of RNA secondary structure in RNA ligation experiments.
Product Source
Thermostable 5´ App DNA/RNA Ligase is expressed as His-tag fusion in E. coli.

Notes
  • For optimal ligation of ssDNA to adenylated DNA linkers, we recommend using NEBuffer 1 supplemented with manganese. For ligation of ssRNA to adenylated DNA linkers, just use NEBuffer 1.
  • DNA to AppDNA ligation occurs with reduced efficiency, therefore we recommend extending the incubation time overnight.
  • We recommend using a thermocycler or heated top to reduce evaporation.
  • For inactivation of the enzyme we recommend Proteinase K treatment or heat-kill at 90°C for 3 minutes
  • Proteinase K treatment is recommended to release RNA bound by the ligase; or you may see a smear on a gel.
