	Methylation Sensitivity
	
 : Not sensitive to dam, dcm and CpG methylation 
			
	 
	Unit definition : 
	One Unit is defined as the amount of Nde I required to completely digest 1 §¶ of ¥ë DNA in one hour at 37¡É in 50 §¡ assay mixture.
	
	
  
	Typical Reaction Conditions
	: Add 5 §¡ of 10X Reaction Buffer 'D'[final conc.: 6 mM Tris-HCl(pH 7.9 @ 37¡É), 6 mM MgCl2, 150 mM NaCl, 1 mM DTT], 1~2 §¡ of DNA(0.5~1.0 §¶/§¡), 1 §¡ of Nde I and 42~43 §¡ of sterile water in 50 §¡ reaction mixture. Incubate at 37¡É. 
	
	 
	
 
	Heat Inactivation
	: 65¡É for 20 min.

	Activity in a complete PCR Mix    : 50~75% 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 Nde I. And then incubate at 37¡É for one hour. Relative activity is determined by gel electrophoresis. 
	
	 
	Storage Conditions
	: 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4 @ 25¡É), 100 mM NaCl, 0.1 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT, 200 §¶/§¢ BSA, and 50% glycerol. Store at -20¡É.

	Quality control 
	
	Overdigestion: The same band pattern as a digestion in one unit of Nde I for one hour was showing after incubation of 1 §¶ of ¥ë DNA with         units of Nde 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 Nde I.
