Notes


General notes:
  1. PspOMI is an isoschizomer of Bsp120I.

FAQs


  1. Why does the catalog number for PspOMI start with V instead of R?
  2. What buffers can be used for double digests using PspOMI?
  3. Does PspOMI replace an enzyme previously sold?
  4. How does PspOMI differ from its isoschizomer, ApaI?
  5. Is PspOMI affected by methylation?

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 20-fold overdigestion with PspOMI, > 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 PspOMI.


16-Hour Incubation:
A 50 μl reaction containing 1 μg of λDNA and 40 units of PspOMI incubated for 16 hours at 37ºC resulted in a DNA pattern free of detectable nuclease degradation as determined by agarose gel electrophoresis.
