Notes


General notes:
  1. BsrGI is an isoschizomer of Bsp1407I.
  2. Incubation of BsrGI at 60°C will result in a 2-fold increase in activity.

FAQs


  1. Did BsrGI replace Bsp1407I?
  2. How can the activity be increased?

Quality Control for Current Lot


Quality control values for a specific lot can be found on the datacard which accompanies each product.

Ligation and Re-cutting:
After a 10-fold overdigestion with BsrGI, > 95% of the DNA fragments can be ligated with T4 DNA Ligase (at a 5' termini concentration of 1-2 μM) at 16ºC. Of these ligated fragments, > 95% can be recut with BsrGI.


16-Hour Incubation:
A 50 μl reaction containing 1 μg of DNA and 100 units of BsrGI incubated for 16 hours at 37ºC resulted in a DNA pattern free of detectable nuclease degradation as determined by agarose gel electrophoresis.

Exonuclease Activity:
Incubation of a 50 μl reaction containing 100 units of BsrGI with 1 μg of a mixture of single and double-stranded [3H] E. coli DNA (205 cpm/μg) for 4 hours at 37ºC released < 0.1% of the total radioactivity.

Endonuclease Activity:
Incubation of a 50 μl reaction containing 100 units of BsrGI with 1 μg of ΦX174 RF I DNA for 4 hours at 37ºC resulted in < 5% conversion to RFII as determined by agarose gel electrophoresis.
