Applications - Digestion of nucleotides included in crude cell extract
- Digestion of chromatin for nucleosome preparation
- Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)
Supplied Buffer10X Micrococcal Nuclease [200 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 50 mM NaCl, 25 mM CaCl2]
SourceStaphylococcus aureus
PurityNuclease activity is not detected after incubation of 1 µg lambda DNA with 50 units of this enzyme for 10 minutes at 37°C in the reaction enzyme buffer (1 x H buffer), as judged from the agarose gel electrophoresis pattern. This enzyme is more than 95% homogenous as judged by SDS-PAGE.
Storage –20°C
Concentration 15–30 units/µL
