Application

TaqI is a restriction endonuclease used in molecular biology applications to cleave DNA moledcules at the recognition site 5′-T/CGA-3′, generating fragments with 5′-cohesive ends.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Recognition sequence: 5′-T/CGA-3′
Ligation and recutting results: After 2-10-fold Taq I overdigestion of 1 μg λ DNA substrate, results in >95% cutting, >85% of fragments can be ligated, and >95% recut.
Heat inactivation: 80 °C for 20 minutes.

Physical form

Solution in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, 1 mM EDTA, 100 mM NaCl, 300 mM KCl, 7 mM 2-mercaptoethanol, 50% glycerol (v/v) at 4 °C

Other Notes

Comment: Taq I will only partially cleave DNA isolated from E. coli strains that have the dam methylase (dam+ strains). Taq I is inefficient in digesting single stranded DNA . Overlapping dam methylation will block cleavage by Taq I. Activity of the enzyme is enhanced by BSA and higher temperatures, >37 °C. Optimal temperature is 65 °C.
Supplied with 10x Restriction Enzyme Buffer SB (B8781).

A sequence-specific endonuclease, Taq I, of novel specificity has been partially purified from an extreme thermophile, Thermus aquaticus. The enzyme cleaves bacteriophage lambda DNA at many (greater than 30) sites and bacteriophage psiX174 RF DNA at 10 sites. The enzyme
