FAQs

1. 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?
2. Is this enzyme sensitive to dam, dcm or mammalian CpG methylation?
3. Can you tell me more about the switch from BSA to Recombinant Albumin (rAlbumin) in NEBuffers?
