Supplied with:
R1625-65: Restriction Enzyme Buffer for KpnI, 10X
10mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5), 10mM MgCl2, 0.02% Triton X-100 and 0.1mg/ml BSA. Incubate at 37°C

Diluent Buffer: 10mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4 at 25°C), 100mM KCl, 1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT, 0.2mg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol, or Storage Buffer.

Storage Buffer: 10mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5 at 25°C), 50mM KCl, 1mM DTT, 0.1mM EDTA, 0.2mg/ml BSA and 50% glycerol.
Overdigestion Assay: No detectable change in the specific fragmentation pattern is observed after 80-fold overdigestion (5u/ug lambda DNA x 16 hours) with KpnI (see Star Activity).

Ligation/Recutting Assay: After 50-fold overdigestion (3u/ug DNA x 17 hours) with KpnI, more than 95% of the DNA fragments can be ligated at a 5'-termini concentration of 0.02uM. 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 restriction endonuclease for 4 hours.

Blue/White Cloning Assay: pUC57 was digested at a unique site with 10 units of enzyme for 5 hours. After religation and transformation 0.1% of white colonies were detected.

Star Activity: A large excess of enzyme (10u/ug DNA x 16 hours) may result in star activity.

Stability during Prolonged Incubation: A minimum of 0.2 units of enzyme is required for complete digestion of 1ug of lambda DNA in 16 hours at 37°C.

Thermal Inactivation: Enzyme is inactivated by incubation at 80°C for 20min.

Digestion of Agarose-embedded DNA: A minimum of 5 units of enzyme is required for digestion of 1ug of agarose-embedded lambda DNA in 16 hours.
