T7 RNA Polymerase V2 is expressed in Escherichia coli, with its sequence derived from a mutant of T7 bacteriophage RNA polymerase gene. It features high synthesis efficiency and low double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) byproduct formation. The enzyme is highly specific: in the presence of magnesium ions, it exclusively uses single- or double-stranded DNA containing the T7 promoter sequence (5’-TAATACGACTCACTATAG*-3’) as a template, and employs NTPs as substrates to synthesize RNA complementary to the DNA strand downstream of the promoter. Both linear blunt-ended and 5’-overhanging double-stranded DNA can serve as templates for T7 RNA Polymerase V2, making linearized plasmids and PCR products suitable templates for in vitro RNA synthesis.
