Unit Definition: One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to cleave 1 pmol of the double stranded oligonucleotide with the following structure
5′-CGAGTTCA^TAGCTGGGCCCAAC-3′
3′-GCTCAAGT^ATCGACCCGGGTTG-5′
in 1 hour at 50°C in a total reaction volume of 20 μl.
Quality Control Assays
Ligation: After 3-fold overdigestion with Fai I, ~50% of pUC19 DNA fragments can be ligated with T4 DNA Ligase and recut.
Oligonucleotide Assay: No detectable degradation of a single- and double-stranded oligonucleotide was observed after incubation with 1 unit of enzyme for 3 hours.
