Unit definitionOne unit of the enzyme is the amount required to hydrolyze 1 μg of T7 DNA in 1 hour at 37°C in a total reaction volume of 50 μl.
Assayed onT7 DNA
Storage conditions10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5); 250 mM NaCl; 0,1 mM EDTA; 7 mM 2-mercaptoethanol; 50% glycerol; Store at -20°C.
LigationAfter 10-fold overdigestion with enzyme 90% of the DNA fragments can be ligated and recut.
Nonspecific hydrolysisNo nonspecific activity was detected after incubation of 1 μg of T7 DNA with 10 u.a. of enzyme for 16 hours at 37°C.
Methylation sensitivityNot blocked by AC m ATGT methylation. Blocked by m ACATGT methylation.
Reagents supplied with enzyme10 X SE-buffer O
NotesThe minimum number of units that resulted in complete digestion of 1 μg of substrate DNA in 16 hours is 0,13.
