Application

KpnI is a DNA restriction enzyme that is used in molecular biology research to cleave DNA at the recognition sequence 5′-GGTAC/C-3′ to generate DNA fragments with 3′-cohesive termini.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Recognition sequence: 5′-GGTAC/C-3′
Cutting results: a 2-10-fold Kpn I overdigestion of 1 μg λ DNA substrate results in 100% cutting
Heat inactivation: 65 °C for 15 minutes.

Physical form

Solution in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 0.1 mM EDTA, 50 mM NaCl, 10 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 50% glycerol (v/v), 0.01% polydocanol (v/v) at 4°C

Other Notes

Comment: Kpn I shows abnormal DNA cleaving patterns (star activity) in reactions containing high (>5%) glycerol, >5% (v/v); excess enzyme and high pH (>8.0).
The enzyme will not cleave DNA containing 3′-residue of 5-methylcytosine.
Supplied with 10x Restriction Enzyme Buffer SL (B3782)
