The extent of protection by M.CviPI is determined by the addition of 30 μl NEBuffer 2 containing 10 units of HaeIII restriction endonuclease. Incubation for 1 hour at 37°C is followed by analysis on an agarose gel.  \u003cb\u003eStorage Buffer\u003c\/b\u003e 15 mM Tris-HCl 0.2 M NaCl 1 mM DTT 0.1 mM EDTA 200 µg\/ml BSA 50% Glycerol pH 7.4 @ 25°C  \u003cb\u003eHeat Inactivation\u003c\/b\u003e 65°C for 20 minutes  \u003cb\u003eFAQ\u003c\/b\u003e Q: Will GpC Methyltransferase (M. CviPI)  work in rCutSmart buffer? A: GpC Methyltransferase (M. CviPI) will work in rCutSmart Buffer, with the addition of DTT. To see its % functional activity in rCutSmart, and that of other DNA modifying enzymes in the cloning workflow, refer to the Activity of DNA Modifying Enzymes in rCutSmart® Buffer chart. Q: Will any NEB methyltransferases (methylases) work on RNA? A: Yes, EcoGII Methyltransferase (NEB #M0603) produces 5-10% methylated adenosine residues on RNA substrates. However, other methyltransferases do not. Please note: NEB has tested the following transferases\/methylases (MT): dam Methyltransferase (NEB #M0222), AluI Methyltransferase (NEB #M0220), BamHI Methyltransferase (NEB #M0223), M.SssI Methyltransferase (NEB #M0226), EcoRI Methyltransferase (NEB #M0211), M.CviPI Methyltransferase (NEB #M0227), HaeIII Methyltransferase (NEB #M0224), HhaI Methyltransferase (NEB #M0217), HpaII Methyltransferase (NEB #M0214), MspI Methyltransferase (NEB #M0215) and TaqI Methyltransferase (NEB #M0219) using their supplied reaction buffers on two substrates:1) An in vitro transcribed mRNA encoding Firefly luciferase (1 µg) and 2) total HeLa RNA (250 ng). Each substrate was incubated with two amounts of enzyme (1 and 5 µl) for 1 hour at 37°C (65°C for Taq I MT), cleaned up using a spin column, digested to individual nucleosides using an enzyme cocktail and analyzed by LC\/MS to identify modified and unmodified residues. None of the methylases examined were able to transfer a methyl group to the RNA substrates examined.
