Product Description :
McrBC specifically cleaves DNA containing methyl cytosine (mC: 5-hydroxymethylcytosine, 5-methylcytosine, 4-methylcytosine) preceded by a purine nucleotide (Pu: A or G). DNA cleavage by McrBC requires at least two PumC sites within a distance of 40–2,000 bp.
Unit Definition :
One unit is defined as the amount of enzyme required to cleave 0.25 μg of pBR322 containing a single McrBC site (pBR322-mu-BamHI-MA/ul) in 1 hour at 37°C in a total reaction volume of 50 μl.
