USB Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase (SAP)
Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase (SAP) is a high specific activity, heat-labile alkaline phosphatase purified from a recombinant source and originally isolated from Pandalus borealis (arctic shrimp). SAP is useful in many molecular biology applications such as the dephosphorylation of phosphorylated ends of DNA or RNA for subsequent use in cloning or end-labeling of probes. In cloning, dephosphorylation prevents relegation of linearized plasmid DNA. SAP may also be used to treat unincorporated dNTPs in PCR reactions to prepare templates for DNA sequencing or SNP analysis.

Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase has approximately the same specific activity as Calf Intestinal Alkaline Phosphatase (CIAP), and like CIAP, is active in virtually all restriction enzyme reaction buffers. Unlike CIAP, Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase is completely and irreversibly inactivated by heating reactions at 65°C for 15 min.

Shrimp Alkaline Phosphatase is particularly useful in preparing PCR products for applications involving sequencing, SNP analysis or labeling methods. Typically, excess dNTPs remaining after PCR interfere with subsequent enzymatic reactions involving DNA synthesis. SAP dephosphorylates all of the remaining dNTPs from the PCR mixture in one easy step.

We are pleased to be offering a recombinant version of our phosphatase benchmark. Recombinant SAP eliminates the dependence on animal sourcing and offers the added benefits of increased storage stability and batch to batch consistency while providing exceptional enzymatic activity and 100% heat inactivation.
