A protein comprising at least a first functional site having the ability to bind the cap structure of mRNA and a second functional site having the ability to bind a solid support matrix in such a manner as to allow the first functional site to be immobilized and still remain functionally accessible to interact with the cap structure of mRNA. Also within the scope of the present invention is a method for generating a cDNA library mostly containing full-length cDNAs. The method comprises the incubation of a mixture comprising mRNA:cDNA hybrids with 1) a single strand RNA specific nuclease and 2) the above-mentioned protein. The resulting mixture is then passed through a column comprising a …

Why it's free to use
- Filed December 12, 1989 and granted July 17, 2001. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended December 12, 2009.

- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
