Uses

Used in Molecular Biology Research:
RNase T1 is used as a digestion agent for denatured RNA prior to sequencing. Its ability to cleave RNA specifically and efficiently makes it an essential tool in preparing RNA samples for accurate sequencing analysis.
Used in Protein Folding Studies:
In the field of protein folding research, RNase T1 is utilized as a model system to study the folding and unfolding mechanisms of proteins. Its well-characterized structure and function allow researchers to gain insights into the fundamental aspects of protein folding, stability, and dynamics.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ribonuclease T1 (RNase T1) from Aspergillus oryzae is an endoribonuclease that hydrolyzes after G residues. Cleavage occurs between the 3′-phosphate group of a guanidine ribonucleotide and 5′-hydroxyl of the adjacent nucleotide. The initial product is a 2′:3′ cyclic phosphate nucleoside that is hydrolyzed to the corresponding 3′-nucleoside phosphate. It differs from Pancreatic RNase in that it attacks the guanine sites specifically to yield 3′-GMP and oligonucleotides with a 3′-GMP terminal group.
