Recognition site | CC^WGG GGW^CC | Methylation sensitivity | Not blocked by overlapping Dcm methylation(CmCWGG): CCWGG. | Origin | Bacillus stearothermophilus 2U | Storage conditions | 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5); 200 mM NaCl; 0.1 mM EDTA; 7 mM 2-mercaptoethanol; 200 ug/ml BSA; 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. | Assayed on | Lambda DNA | Ligation | After Bst2UI overdigestion none of DNA fragmetns can be ligated. | Non-specific activity | No nonspecific activity was detected after incubation of 1 ug of Lambda DNA with 10 u.a. of enzyme for 16 hours at 60°C. | Optimum temperature | 60 oC | Inactivation 20 minutes | 80oC | Optimum SE-buffer | G (10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.6 at 25°C); 10 mM MgCl2; 50 mM NaCl; 1 mM DTT.) + BSA |
Enzyme % activity:
B | G | O | W | Y | 75 - 100 | 100 | 50 - 75 | 50 - 75 | 10 - 25 |
Note: To obtain 100% activity, BSA should be added to the 1x reaction mix to a final concentration of 100 ug/ml.
Do not use BSA for long incubation.
