Activity in SEBuffers:

SEBuffer B        50 -  75%

SEBuffer G       50 -   75%

SEBuffer O       25 -   50%

SEBuffer W       75 - 100%

SEBuffer Y               100%

SEBuffer ROSE         25%

When using a buffer other than the optimal (suppied) SEBuffer, it may be necessary to add more enzyme to achieve complete digestion. 

Optimal temperature: 37°C

Storage conditions: 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5); 200 mM KCl; 0.1 mM EDTA; 7 mM 2 -mercaptoethanol, 200 μg/ml BSA; 50% glycerol.

Store at: -20°C.

Ligation: After 20-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 Lambda DNA with 20 u.a. of enzyme for 16 hours at 37°C.

Reagents supplied with enzyme: 10 X SE-buffer Y, BSA

Methylation sensitivity: not tested

Inactivation: 20 minutes under 80°C

Notes: To obtain 100% activity, BSA should be added to the 1 x reaction mix to a final concentration of 100 μg/ml. Do not use BSA for long incubation.
