Unexpected electrophoretic migration of RNA with different 3' termini causes a RNA sizing ambiguity that can be resolved using nuclease P1-generated sequencing ladders. Academic Article uri icon

abstract

  • It has been widely believed that the electrophoretic migration difference of otherwise identical RNAs with a P versus OH terminus would be the same as occurs for DNA, a fairly reproducible approximately 1/2 nucleotide (nt) offset. RNA with a 5'-OH indeed migrates
