Enzyme Properties
Stability during Prolonged Incubation: A minimum of 0.2u of EcoRI are required for complete digestion of 1ug of lambda DNA in 16 hours at 37°C.
Thermal Inactivation
EcoRI is inactivated by incubation at 65°C for 20min.
Digestion of Agarose-Embedded DNA
A minimum of 5u of EcoRI is required for complete digestion of 1ug of agarose-embedded lambda DNA in 16 hours.
Compatible Ends
XapI, MunI, TasI
Number of Recognition Sites in DNA
Lambda: 5 PhiX174: 0 pBR322; 1 pUC57: 1 pUC18/19: 1 pTZ19R/U: 1 M13mp18/19: 1
No detectable change in the specific fragmentation pattern is observed after 80-fold overdigestion (5u/ug lambda DNA x 16 hours) with EcoRI.
The ligation and recleavage assay was replaced with LO test after validating experiments showed LO test ability to trace nuclease and phosphatase activities with sensitivity that is higher than L/R by a factor of 100.
Labeled Oligonucleotide Assay
No detectable degradation of a single-stranded and double-stranded labeled oligonucleotide was observed after incubation with 10u of EcoRI for 4 hours.
The B/W assay was replaced with LO test after validating experiments showed LO test ability to detect nuclease and phosphatase activities with sensitivity that equals to that of B/W test.
Methylation Effects
Dam, Dcm, EcoBl, EcoKl: never overlaps - no effect, CpG: may overlap - cleavage impaired..
