additional information
-
750 nM substrate and 100 nM enzyme and a reaction time of 3 h is sufficient to convert most, if not all, of the Rp stereoisomer substrate DNA into product Homo sapiens
additional information

?
additional information The ratio of AP endo reaction product to STM7 49mer hairpin oligomers is varied. Product formation is maximal with an 8:1 ratio of STM7 acceptor to 5' thiophosphate donor DNA and by addition of extra ATP (0.5 mM) and ligase (60 units) midreaction Homo sapiens ?
