1. Do degenerate recognition sites need to be palindromic?
2. Do I have to set-up digests with Time-Saver™ qualified enzymes for 5-15 minutes? Can I digest longer?
3. Why is my Restriction Enzyme not cutting DNA?
4. Why do I see a DNA smear on an agarose gel after a restriction digest?
5. Why do I see additional DNA bands on my gel after a restriction digest?
6. How many nucleotides do I have to add adjacent to the RE recognition site in order to get efficient cutting?
7. Is this enzyme sensitive to dam, dcm or mammalian CpG methylation?
8. Can you tell me more about the switch from BSA to Recombinant Albumin (rAlbumin) in NEBuffers?
