Unit DefinitionOne unit is defined as the amount of TaqI to digest 1ug of lambda DNA dam- in 1 hour at 65°C in 50ul of assay buffer.
Thermal Inactivation
Enzyme is not inactivated by incubation at 80°C for 20min.
Overdigestion Assay
No detectable change in the specific fragmentation pattern is observed after 160-fold overdigestion (10u/ug lambda DNA dam-x 16 hours) with TaqI.
Ligation/Recutting Assay
After 50-fold overdigestion (3u/ug DNA x 17 hours) with TaqI, more than 95% of the DNA fragments can be ligated at a 5'-termini concentration of 1.2uM. More than 95% of these can be recut.
Labeled Oligonucleotide (LO) Assay
No detectable degradation of a single-stranded and double-stranded labeled oligonucleotide was observed after incubation with 10 units of TaqI for 4 hours.
Methylation Effects
DamMay overlap- blocked
Dcm, EcoKI, EcoBlNever overlaps-no effect
CpGCompletely overlaps- no effect
Stability during Prolonged Incubation
A minimum of 0.3 units of TaqI is required for complete digestion of 1ug of lambda DNA in 16 hours at 65°C.
