Cap Analogs
ARCA
Quick view. We supply ARCA as an anti-reverse cap analog for co-transcriptional mRNA capping. CAS 400806-46-4. Catalog target purity: Specification on request.
Product profile
ARCA is classified as rna cap analog or cap-related nucleotide (Formula C22H31N10O18P3; molecular weight 816.46).
ARCA can support enzyme-substrate, in-vitro transcription, polymerase-screening or analytical-reference studies as appropriate to its phosphate state.
For ARCA, capping outcome depends on polymerase system, cap-to-NTP ratio, transcript design and purification method.
