Cod Uracil-DNA Glycosylase

Cod Uracil-DNA Glycosylase

Varizymes' Cod Uracil-DNA Glycosylase (cUNG) is a recombinant, thermolabile enzyme that removes uracil from DNA. It is ideal for preventing carryover contamination during RNA or DNA amplification reactions that substitute dUTP for dTTP. Varizymes' cUNG is completely and irreversibly inactivated by moderate heat treatment, unlike bacterial versions of the enzyme. Cod UNG treatment in combination with targeted pre-amplification using dUTP provides a simple and efficient solution to eliminate carryover contamination and the generation of false positives and inaccurate quantification.
