BD SMART™ RACE cDNA Amplification Kit User Manual
I. Introduction & Protocol Overview
The BD SMART™ RACE cDNA Amplification Kit provides a novel method for
performing both 5'- and 3'-rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). This kit
integrates our BD Marathon™ cDNA Amplification Kit (Chenchik
et al.
, 1995;
1996) with our BD SMART (Switching Mechanism At 5' end of RNA Transcript)
cDNA synthesis technology. This powerful combination allows you to isolate the
complete 5' sequence of your target transcript more consistently than ever
before. Furthermore, BD SMART technology eliminates the need for problematic
adaptor ligation and lets you use first-strand cDNA directly in RACE PCR, a
benefit that makes RACE far less complex and much faster (Chenchik
et al.
,
1998). The BD SMART RACE Kit also includes recent advances in PCR
technology that both increase the sensitivity and reduce the background of the
RACE reactions. As a result you can use either poly A
+
or total RNA as starting
material for constructing full-length cDNAs of even very rare transcripts.
BD SMART technology provides a mechanism for generating full-length cDNAs
in reverse transcription reactions (Zhu
et al
., 2001). This is made possible by the
joint action of the BD SMART II™ A Oligonucleotide and the BD PowerScript™
Reverse Transcriptase (RT). BD PowerScript RT is a variant of MMLV RT that,
upon reaching the end of an RNA template, exhibits terminal transferase activity,
adding 3–5 residues (predominantly dC) to the 3' end of the first-strand cDNA
(Figure 1). The BD SMART oligo contains a terminal stretch of G residues that
anneal to the dC-rich cDNA tail and serves as an extended template for RT.
BD PowerScript RT switches templates from the mRNA molecule to the
BD SMART oligo, generating a complete cDNA copy of the original RNA with the
additional BD SMART sequence at the end. Since the dC-tailing activity of RT is
most efficient if the enzyme has reached the end of the RNA template, the
BD SMART sequence is typically added only to complete first-strand cDNAs.
This process guarantees that the use of high quality RNA will result in the
formation of a set of cDNAs that have a maximum amount of 5' sequence
(Table I).
Figure 1. Mechanism of BD SMART™ cDNA
synthesis. First-strand synthesis is primed using a
modified oligo (dT) primer. After reverse transcriptase
reaches the end of the mRNA template, it adds
several dC residues. The BD SMART II A Oligo-
nucleotide anneals to the tail of the cDNA and serves
as an extended template for BD PowerScript RT.

I. Introduction & Protocol Overview
continued
Following reverse transcription, the first-strand cDNA is used directly in 5'- and
3'-RACE PCR reactions, without the need for tedious second-strand synthesis
and adaptor ligation. The incorporation of BD SMART technology also permits
the use of “universal priming” in the RACE PCR amplification. This method,
along with the techniques of suppression PCR and step-out PCR ensure high
specificity in amplifying your target cDNA. These methods are described in detail
below and in Appendix C.
The only requirement for BD SMART RACE cDNA amplification is that you know
at least 23–28 nucleotides (nt) of sequence information in order to design gene-
specific primers (GSPs) for the 5'- and 3'-RACE reactions. (Additional sequence
information will facilitate analysis of your RACE products.) This limited require-
ment makes BD SMART RACE ideal for characterizing genes identified through
diverse methods including cDNA subtraction, differential display, RNA finger-
printing, ESTs, library screening, and more.
BD SMART RACE cDNA amplification is a flexible tool—many researchers use
this kit in place of conventional kits to amplify just the 5' or 3' end of a particular
cDNA. Others perform
both
5'- and 3'-RACE, and many then go on to clone full-
length cDNAs using one of the two methods described in the latter part of this
protocol. In many cases, researchers obtain full-length cDNAs without ever
constructing or screening a cDNA library.
