Specificity
Recognition sequence: 5′-G/AATTC-3′
Cutting results: a 2-10-fold EcoR I overdigestion of 1 μg λ DNA substrate results in 100% cutting
Heat inactivation: 65 °C for 20 minutes.
Cutting results: a 2-10-fold EcoR I overdigestion of 1 μg λ DNA substrate results in 100% cutting
Heat inactivation: 65 °C for 20 minutes.
Application
EcoRI is a restriction endonuclease that is used in molecular biology applications to cleave DNA at the recognition site 5′-G/AATTC-3′, generating fragments with 5′-cohesive termini.
Other Notes
Supplied with 10x Restriction Enzyme Buffer SH (B3657).
Comment: Avoid suboptimal reaction conditions such as low salt, high pH (>8.0) and high glycerol (>5%) as they will alter EcoRI specificity and precipitate star activity.
Unit Definition
One unit is the enzyme activity that completely cleaves 1 mg of λDNA in 1 hour at 37 °C in a total volume of 50 ml of 1x digestion buffer SH for restriction enzymes. 1 mg pBR322 DNA is digested completely by 2 units of EcoR I.

The sequence of DNA base pairs adjacent to the phosphodiester bonds cleaved by the RI restriction endonuclease in unmodified DNA from coliphage lambda has been determined. The 5'-terminal nucleotide labeled with (32)P and oligonucleotides up to the heptamer were analyzed

Integrating viral vectors are efficient gene transfer tools, but their integration patterns have been associated with genotoxicity and oncogenicity. The recent development of highly specific designer nucleases has enabled target DNA modification and site-specific gene insertion at desired genomic loci.

In this work we describe a novel, rapid and simple microscale procedure for identification of restriction endonuclease activity in bacteria lysates, which contain high levels of non-specific DNA nucleases.

Helicobacter pylori is a Gram-negative bacterium that colonizes human stomach and causes gastric inflammation. The species is naturally competent and displays remarkable diversity. The presence of a large number of restriction-modification (R-M) systems in this bacterium creates a barrier against

The role of certain amino acids in the interactions of ligands with their cognate nuclear receptors is usually achieved by the resolution of the crystal structure of the receptor complexed with the ligand. As a complementary functional approach, site-directed mutagenesis
