N1-Me-pUTP, or N1-Methyl-Pseudo-UTP, is a modified nucleotide that can replace the natural cap of mRNA during in vitro transcription. This reduces the autoimmunity of mRNA and improves its expression efficiency by increasing ribosome binding. Compared to Pseudo-UTP, N1-Me-pUTP further improves mRNA expression efficiency and reduces autoimmunity.

Poly(A) Polymerase

 Poly(A) Polymerase, a recombinant E. coli polymerase, adds a polyadenylated tail to the 3' end of RNA, improving its stability and translation efficiency in eukaryotic cells. Poly(A) Polymerase has a wide range of applications in molecular biology, including in vitro transcription, mRNA expression, and RNA sequencing.
