Recognition site | ↑CATG GTAC↓ |
Source | An E.coli strain that carries the cloned Fat I gene from Flavobacterium aquatile NL3 |
Assayed on | pUC19 DNA |
Unit definition | One unit of the enzyme is the amount required to hydrolyze 1 μg of pUC19 DNA in 1 hour at 55°C in a total reaction volume of 50 μl. |
Optimal SE-buffer | G (10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.6 at 25°C); 10 mM MgCl2; 50 mM NaCl; 1 mM DTT.) |
Enzyme activity (%) | B | G | O | W | Y | Rose | 10 - 25 | 100 | 25 - 50 | 10 - 25 | 50 - 75 | 100 |
|
Optimal temperature | 55oC |
Storage conditions | 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5); 50 mM KCl; 0,1 mM EDTA; 1 mM DTT; 200 μg/ml BSA; and 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. |
Ligation | After 2-fold overdigestion with enzyme more than 90% of the DNA fragments can be ligated and recut. |
Non-specific hydrolisis | No nonspecific activity was detected after incubation of 1 μg of DNA with 3 u.a. of enzyme for 16 hours at 55°C.

Reagents Supplied with Enzyme |
10 X SE-buffer G |
Methylation sensitivity | Blocked by mCATG methylation |
Inactivation 20 minutes under | 65oC |
Notes | The minimum number of units that resulted in complete digestion of 1 μg of substrate DNA in 16 hours is 0,25.
FatI cleaves linear plasmid DNA at a rate 1.5-2 times higher than supercoiled plasmid DNA.
