RNAConnect develops advanced enzymes and kits for researchers studying RNA, with a focus on improving the visibility of long, structured, and low-abundance RNA. Its flagship technology, UltraMarathonRT (uMRT), is a highly optimized group II intron reverse transcriptase designed for applications including RNA sequencing, RT-PCR, RT-qPCR, and Nanopore direct RNA sequencing.

According to the company, uMRT supports high-fidelity, end-to-end cDNA synthesis, copying long transcripts in a single pass. Its intrinsic helicase activity helps unwind complex RNA structures without heating the reaction, while its BOOST buffer is designed to improve cDNA synthesis from very small samples. The enzyme operates at ambient temperatures, helping preserve RNA integrity.

RNAConnect’s product range includes the uMRT Reverse Transcriptase Kit, Template Switching Kit, Two-Step RT-PCR Kit, and Two-Step RT-qPCR Kit. These tools support research in gene expression and regulation, long-read RNA sequencing, RNA structure and modification profiling, and applications spanning discovery research, diagnostics, and cell, gene, and RNA therapy quality control. The company also provides publications, application resources, product support, and distributor information.
