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

Ligation and Recleavage
After 50-fold overdigestion with AjuI, more than 90% of the digested DNA fragments can be ligated, but none of these can be recut due to the methylation of the recognition sequence by this enzyme.

Digestion of Agarose-embedded DNA
Minimum 5 units of the enzyme are required for complete digestion of 1 µg of agarose-embedded lambda DNA in 16 hours.

Note
  • Complete cleavage of some substrates with AjuI is difficult to achieve.
  • AjuI concentration is determined by a maximal cleavage level achieved when no change in the fragmentation patterns is observed with the further enzyme increase.
  • AjuI produces double-strand cuts on both sides of the interrupted recognition site. In certain sequence contexts, the cleavage position may be shifted by one base pair. However, the cleavage position indicated above will predominate.
