BstSC I

Description

Recognition site and hydrolysis position:

Source: Bacillus stearothermophilus SC
Unit definition:
One unit of the enzyme is the amount required to hydrolyze 1 μg of Lambda DNA (dcm-) in 1 hour at 55°C in a total reaction volume of 50 μl.
Assayed on:
Lambda DNA (dcm-)
Optimal SE-buffer: SE-buffer Y
Enzyme activity (%):

Storage conditions: 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5); 50 mM KCl; 0,1 mM EDTA; 7 mM 2-mercaptoethanol; 200 μg/ml BSA; and 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C.
Ligations:
After 5-fold overdigestion with enzyme more than 95% of the DNA fragments can be ligated and 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 55°C. Reagents Supplied with Enzyme 10 X SE-buffer Y
Reagents Supplied with Enzyme:
Methylation sensitivity: Blocked by Dcm-methylation (C^mCWGG) CCWGG.
Notes: At 37°C activity is 10% from maximum.
