	Activity in a complete PCR Mix    : 10~50% Conditions: [10 mM Tris-HCl(pH 8.3 @ 25 ¡É), 50 mM KCl, 1.5 mM MgCl2, 2 pmol of primers, 200 ¥ìM dNTP Mix, 2.5 U Taq DNA polymerase and 1 §¶ of DNA(template or substrate) in 50 §¡ of reaction volume] After 30 amplication cycles, add 5 units of EcoR I. And then incubate at 37¡É for one hour. Relative activity is determined by gel electrophoresis. 
	
	 
	Storage Conditions
	: 10 mM Tris-HCl(pH 7.5), 100 mM KCl, 0.1 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, 0.15% Triton¢â X-100, 100 §¶/§¢ BSA, and 50% glycerol. Store at -20¡É.

	Quality control 
	
	Overdigestion: The same band pattern as a digestion in one unit of EcoR I for one hour was showing after incubation of 1 §¶ of ¥ë DNA with         units of EcoR I for 16 hr in 50 §¡ of reaction mixture at 37¡É as determined by agarose gel electrophoresis. 
	
	Ligation-Recut: After a 10-fold digestion for one hour,        % of ¥ë DNA fragments were ligated with T4 DNA ligase at 16¡É and        % of the ligated fragments could be recut with EcoR I.
