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`-CGAGTTTATAGCTGGGCCCAAC-3` 3`-GCTCAAATATCGACCCGGGTTG-5` in 1 hour at 55ºC in a total reaction volume or 20 µl
Quality Control Assays
Ligation: After 5-fold overdigestion with Set I, approximately 50% of DNA fragments can be ligated with T4 DNA Ligase and recut.*SetI cleaves a canonical site and several other sites with a weaker activity. In the case of long incubation with SetI DNA can be digested to small oligos.
Oligonucleotide Assay: No detectable degradation of a single- and double-stranded oligonucleotide was observed after incubation with 5 units of enzyme for 3 hours.
