Unit definitionOne unit of the enzyme is the amount required to hydrolyze 1 μg of Lambda DNA in 1 hour at 60°C in a total reaction volume of 50 μl.
Assayed onLambda DNA
Storage conditions10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.6); 100 mM NaCl; 0.1 mM EDTA; 1 mM DTT; 200 μg/ml BSA; 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C.
LigationAfter 10-fold overdigestion with enzyme 95% of the DNA fragments can be ligated and recut.
Nonspecific hydrolysisNo nonspecific activity was detected after incubation of 1 μg of Lambda DNA with 5 u.a. of enzyme for 16 hours at 60°C.
Methylation sensitivityNot blocked by Dam-methylation (G m ATC): R GATC Y
Reagents supplied with enzyme10 X SE-buffer G
