Usage

Description

SFI I is a type IIS restriction endonuclease that recognizes and cleaves DNA at specific recognition sequences. It is known for its unique octameric recognition sequence, which is rare in many organisms, particularly those with low G+C content. This characteristic makes SFI I a valuable tool in molecular biology and genetic research.

Uses

Used in Genetic Research:
SFI I is used as a genetic analysis tool for analyzing and cloning large DNA fragments. Its rare recognition sequence allows for precise cutting and manipulation of DNA, facilitating the study of genetic material and the development of new genetic constructs.
Used in Molecular Biology:
In molecular biology, SFI I serves as a valuable enzyme for cloning and manipulating DNA sequences. Its unique recognition sequence enables researchers to target specific regions of interest within a genome, making it easier to study gene function and regulation.
Used in Biotechnology:
SFI I is also employed in biotechnology applications, where its ability to recognize and cut DNA at specific sites is utilized for the development of genetically modified organisms and the creation of novel biotechnological products.
