FastGene Double Digest - One Reaction, Two Cuts!

Written by Jakob Maciejko | May 12, 2021 11:54:45 AM

Our FastGene® Double Digest Chart helps you to quickly find the perfect conditions for DNA cutting with TWO Restriction Enzymes.

FastGene® Restriction Enzymes - Excellent performance.

Our FastGene® Restriction Enzymes are excellent DNA cutting tools. They show highest activity, reliability and purity, giving best results for scientists!

Setting up a reaction is very simple using the color coded buffer system. What's even simpler: Almost all FastGene Restriction Enzymes are compatible with our FastCut buffer - complete your reaction in 15 min!

 

Switch Made Easy.

There is no reason not to switch! In case you were using competitor N Enzymes before, FastGene® Restriction Enzymes are 100% compatible with all competitor N buffers.

 

Double Digest - Give your DNA directionality.

Double Digest can help you with your cloning experiments. The simultanous DNA cutting with TWO restriction enzymes is frequently used as a powerful cloning tool:

      • "Sticky Ends"-restriction enzymes leave behind a specific overhang sequence, giving your DNA fragments directionality.
      • When a DNA backbone and DNA insert are digested with the same pair of restriction enzymes (e.g. BamHI and EcoRI) only the cohesive "sticky-ends" can join together.
      • This allows full control over the direction of DNA fragment alignment.
      • The gaps are then closed by ligation, creating your final DNA fragment.

 

Double? No Trouble! - How to find the best Double Digest conditions.

Finding the best Double Digest conditions using TWO enzymes IN ONE reaction is no trouble at all. We prepared a chart for you (excerpt is shown below). All you need to do is pick your FastGene® Restriction Enzyme pair and the chart will display the recommended buffers for the reaction.

One buffer to cut them all! - 96% of our restriction enzymes can be used with our FastCut® buffer with 100% activity. There is no other way for faster and easier Double Digestion than with FastCut®.
