| Source | An E.coli strain, that carries the cloned gene XmaI from Xanthomonas malvacearum |
| Assayed on | Adenovirus -2 DNA |
| Unit definition | One unit of the enzyme is the amount required to hydrolyze 1 μg of Adenovirus -2 DNA in 1 hour at 37°C in a total reaction volume of 50 μl. |
| Optimal SE-buffer | Y (33 mM Tris-acetate (pH 7.9 at 25°C); 10 mM magnesium acetate; 66 mM potassium acetate; 1 mM DTT.) |
| Enzyme activity (%) | | B | G | O | W | Y | Rose | | 75 - 100 | 50 - 75 | 0 - 10 | 0 - 10 | 100 | 50 |
|
| Optimal temperature | 37oC |
| Storage conditions | 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.6); 50 mM NaCl; 0.1 mM EDTA; 1 mM DTT; 200 μg/ml BSA; 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. |
| Ligation | After 3-fold overdigestion with enzyme 95% of the DNA fragments can be ligated. Of these 90% can be recut. |
| Non-specific hydrolisis | No nonspecific activity was detected after incubation of 1 μg of Lambda DNA with 3 u.a. of enzyme for 16 hours at 37°C
