Recombinant 2019-nCoV Guanine-N7 methyltransferase is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Ala1-Gln527 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus.
Greater than 85% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Application Notes:
Background: The nonstructural protein (nsp) 14 of SARS-CoV 2 was identified as a cap (guanine-N7)-methyltransferase (N7-MTase). Nsp14 of coronaviruses two different activities: an exoribonuclease activity acting on both ssRNA and dsRNA in a 3 to 5 direction and a N7-guanine methyltransferase activity. It may be involved in the proof-reading ability during the viral RNA replication and transcription. GTP, dGTP as well as cap analogs GpppG, GpppA and m7GpppG could be methylated by nsp14
