FAQs & Troubleshooting

FAQs

  1. Can modified ribonucleotides be used with HiScribe® T7 High Yield RNA Synthesis Kit (NEB #E2040)?
  2. Can I completely substitute a modified NTP for the canonical NTP counterpart? Will complete substitution impact yield?
  3. Can I use more than one modified NTP in the same IVT? Will this impact yield?
