Description
Recognition site and hydrolysis position:
CTCGAG | C↑TCGAG |
GAGCTC | GAGCT↓C |
Source: Streptomyces fradiae 274
Unit definition:
One unit of the enzyme is the amount required to hydrolyze 1 μg of Lambda DNA (Hind III-digest) in 1 hour at 50°C in a total reaction volume of 50 μl.
Assayed on:
Lambda DNA (Hind III-digest)
Optimal SE-buffer: SE-buffer B
Enzyme activity (%):
B | G | O | W | Y | ROSE |
100 | 75 | 50 | 50 | 75 | 100 |
Storage conditions: 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5); 50 mM KCl; 0.1 mM EDTA; 7 mM 2-mercaptoethanol; 200 μg/ml BSA; 50% glycerol.. Store at -20°C.
Ligations:
After 20-fold overdigestion with enzyme 90% 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 40 u.a. of enzyme for 16 hours at 50°C.
Reagents Supplied with Enzyme:
Methylation sensitivity: Blocked by CTCGmAG methylation.
Not blocked by CTmCGAG methylation.
Notes: Incubation at 37°C results in 70% activity
