| Assayed on | Adenovirus -2 DNA |
| Unit definition | One unit of the enzyme is the amount required to hydrolyze 1 μg of Ad2 DNA in 1 hour at 37°C in a total reaction volume of 50 μl. |
| Optimal SE-buffer | SE-buffer RigI (10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.5 at 25°C); 5 mM MgCl2; 1mM DTT.) + BSA |
| Enzyme activity (%) | | B | G | O | W | Y | R | | 75 - 100 | 50 - 75 | 0 - 10 | 10 - 25 | 50 - 75 | 10 |
|
| Optimal temperature | 37oC |
| Storage conditions | 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5); 100 mM KCl; 0.1 mM EDTA; 7 mM 2-mercaptoethanol; 200 μg/ml BSA; 50% glycerol. Store at -20°C. For long term storage (more than 7 days), store at -70ºC. |
| Ligations | After 5-fold overdigestion with enzyme > 95% of Ad2 DNA fragments can be ligated with T4 DNA Ligase and recut. |
| Non-specific hydrolisis | No nonspecific activity was detected after incubation of 1 μg of Ad2 DNA with 6 units of enzyme for 16 hours at 37°C.

| Reagents Supplied with Enzyme |
10 X SE-buffer RigI, BSA |
| Methylation sensitivity | not tested |
| Inactivation 20 minutes under | 65oC |
| Notes | Do not use BSA for long incubation.
To obtain 100% activity, BSA should be added to the 1 x reaction mix to a final concentration of 100 μg/ml. |
