Product Class: Restriction Endonuclease

BciVI
neb31 cloned at NEB recombinant time saver dil_C 37 80 Heat

We are excited to announce that all reaction buffers are now BSA-free. NEB began switching our BSA-containing reaction buffers in April 2021 to buffers containing Recombinant Albumin (rAlbumin) for restriction enzymes and some DNA modifying enzymes. Find more details at www.neb.com/BSA-free.

NEB restriction endonuclease that recognizes the sequence GTATCCNNNNN_N^
Isoschizomers | Single Letter Code

Product Introduction

  • Time-Saver™ qualified for digestion in 5-15 minutes
  • 100% activity in rCutSmart™ Buffer (over 210 enzymes are available in the same buffer) allowing for easier double digests
  • Type IIS restriction enzymes recognize asymmetric DNA sequences and cleave outside of their recognition sequence
  • Restriction Enzyme Cut Site: GTATCC(6/5)

FAQs & Troubleshooting

FAQs

  1. Is BciVI inhibited by salt?
  2. Is extended digestion of BciVI recommended?
  3. Why is BciVI- cut DNA difficult to ligate?
  4. Is the recognition site nonpalindromic?
  5. Do I have to set-up digests with Time-Saver™ qualified enzymes for 5-15 minutes? Can I digest longer?
  6. I tested your restriction enzyme on the substrate DNA recommended by NEB, and it appears to be active, however it does not digest my DNA. What could be the reason?
  7. Is this enzyme sensitive to dam, dcm or mammalian CpG methylation?
  8. Can you tell me more about the switch from BSA to Recombinant Albumin (rAlbumin) in NEBuffers?
  9. For enzymes stored at -80°C, is enzyme activity affected after multiple freeze / thaw cycles?
